Runyakitara[3] is a standardized language based on four closely related languages of western Uganda:
Jouni Filip Maho's 2009 New Updated Guthrie List Online calls it an artificial language,[2] while Ethnologue 23 calls it "standardized" and "hybrid".[4]
The Google interface has been translated into Kitara in February 2010 by the Faculty of Computing and IT, Makerere University. It is also used in the Orumuri newspaper, published by New Vision Group.[5]
