Tazama chanzo cha Kirundi

'''Kirundi''' ni [[lugha ya Kibantu]] inayotumika na watu milioni kumi au zaidi hasa nchini [[Burundi]] lakini pia katika maeneo ya jirani ya [[Tanzania]], [[Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Kongo]] na [[Uganda]]. Ndiyo [[lugha ya taifa]] na mojawapo ya [[lugha rasmi]] za Burundi. 

Wanaosema Kirundi na [[Kinyarwanda]], lugha rasmi ya [[Rwanda]], wanasikilizana bila shida.<ref name="ethn">Ethnologue, 15th ed.</ref>

Kwa kiasi kikubwa sana hata [[Waha]] na [[Wahangaza]] wa [[Tanzania]] wanasikilizana nao.
