Chichewa subtitling or Chewa subtitling and also known as Nyanja (Chiyanja), is part of the Bantu language family. The gender prefix chi- is used for languages, so the language is also known as Chichewa and Chinyanja. Chewa is the national language of Malawi. It is also one of the seven official African languages of Zambia, where it is spoken mostly in the Eastern Province and in Lusaka. It is also spoken in Mozambique, especially in the provinces of Tete and Niassa, as well as in Zimbabwe where, according to some estimates, it ranks as the third most widely used local language, after Shona and Northern Ndebele. There are 9 million Chichewa speakers in Zambia, Malawi, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.
