    The local language in Maputsu(Maputo) is Tsonga/Shangaan same as in SA but different accent and dialect. Unfortunately Portuguese let the language die on purpose by banning the locals from speaking it, hence new generations can't speak Shangaan in Maputo.

      @@neverlookback1244 yes some were also taken to USA as well. For some reason, ppl on the continent don’t believe that ppl from Mozambique, Madagascar, Angola and Congo were taken to USA. Not sure why they believe the slave traders were 100% truthful in where they took ppl.
      Example. Portuguese told ppl they were taking a ship full of Angolans to Mexico in 1619, but they ended up in Virginia, so now when African Americans tell Angolans, hey our ancestors were from there, they get told, no Portugal took people to Mexico and Brazil, not USA.

    Well that makes sense since Bahia Brazil is a coastal area Portuguese colony and the slaves brought to the Bahian coast were Bantu central african slaves and Mozambique is also a bantu tribal costal country colonized by the Portuguese so both places are very similar.
