Gyem (also called Gema, Gemawa, Gyam, or Gyemawa) is an endangered East Kainji language of Bauchi State, Nigeria, spoken by approximately 2,400 people in several villages in Toro Local Government Area. Linguists have documented it as a distinct and increasingly vulnerable language within the Kainji branch of Niger-Congo, with pressure from more dominant regional languages threatening its transmission. The Language Developers and Bible Translators (LDBT) Association, based in Bauchi and deeply committed to the minority languages of Bauchi State, undertook scripture translation for the Gyem community. LDBT's methodology combines language development — including orthography and literacy work — with Bible translation, ensuring that new scripture resources can eventually support both oral and literate engagement. The resulting audio New Testament, made available through Faith Comes By Hearing's Bible.is platform, gives Gyem speakers access to the New Testament in their heart language for the first time, an especially significant achievement for a community at risk of language shift.
