Nobiin is one of the about eleven Nubian languages. It is one of the two Nubian langauges spoken in Egypt. In Egypt, it is sometimes called Fadijja or Fedicca after the group that speaks it there. Sudanese varieties are sometimes called Mahasi and Halfawi.
Nobiin is the largest modern Nubian languages at ~545,000 speakers, the second largest being Kenzi-Dongolawi (AKA Matokki in Egypt and Andaandi in Sudan).
