Dama language (Sierra Leone)

Not to be confused with Dama language (disambiguation).

Dama is an extinct language of Sierra Leone. It was replaced by Mende. Based on a few remembered words and toponyms, Dalby (1963) believed it to be a Northern Mande language, similar to Kono and Vai, but Glottolog leaves it unclassified.
