==History and development== The Soga language is very similar to the neighbouring languages [[Luganda]] and [[Gwere language|Gwere]] as all 3 descend from a common ancestor language (Proto-North Nyanza). The written form of Soga is only as recent as the arrival of the Arab and European traders and missionaries. It first appeared in print in the second half of the nineteenth century. Soga is used in some primary schools in Busoga as pupils begin to learn English, an [[official language]] of [[Uganda]]. It is also taught in secondary schools and is offered as a course subject in tertiary institutions such as [[Busoga University]], [[Kyambogo University]] and [[Makerere University]].
