The Xhosa people (English: /ˈkɔːsə/ or /ˈksə/;Xhosa pronunciation: [kǁʰɔ́ːsa] (About this sound listen)) are a Bantu ethnic group of Southern Africa mainly found in the Eastern and Western Cape, South Africa, and in the last two centuries throughout the southern and central-southern parts of the country. There is a small but significant Xhosa (Mfengu) community in Zimbabwe, where their language, Xhosa, is recognised as a national language.
