Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Kongo language — The claim that 'Kongo is among the earliest Bantu languages written in Latin characters, though Swahili has earlier attestations in Latin script' is misleading because Swahili's earliest Latin-script attestations postdate Kongo's earliest Latin-script catechis

Kongo language — The claim that 'the first known catechism in Kongo was produced by Francisco de Gouveia and other Portuguese Jesuit missionaries' is inaccurate because the first known catechism was produced by Francisco de Gouveia alone, not by a group.
