The Kulango, or Kulango-Lorhon, languages are spoken principally in Ivory Coast, with further speakers in Ghana and Burkina Faso. Once classified as part of an expanded Gur family, they are now placed within the proposed Savannas branch of Niger-Congo, and comprise four mutually unintelligible varieties per Ethnologue: Bondoukou Kulango with about 100,000 speakers, Bouna Kulango with about 160,000, Lomakka with about 8,000, and Teen, or Lorhon, with about 8,000 speakers in Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso.
