Tunni (also known as Af-Tunni) is an Afro-Asiatic language spoken by the Tunni sub-group of the Rahanweyn clan of the Somali people, who reside in the Lower Shebelle and Middle Juba regions in southern Somalia. Typically classified among the Digil group of languages, Tunni is distinct from Somali, with a different phonology and sentence structure.[3][4]
