SBS radio's language repertoire continues to expand - it has recently introduced Dinka into its schedule. Dinka is spoken by millions in South Sudan - the world's newest nation and home to hundreds of languages and dialects. Almost 10,000 Dinka speakers now live in Australia and the community continues to grow.
This is what Dinka looks like written: Raan thök eben aye dhëëth ka lau nhöm kua thöŋ nhiim eyithiic, kua thɛ̈kic, kua ci yëknhiethku puou, ku bik cëŋ ka ke ye mith etik.
