Kachama-Ganjule is anAfroasiatic language spoken inEthiopia on islands inLake Chamo andLake Abaya. Kachama is spoken onGidicho island in Lake Abaya, whereas Ganjule was originally spoken on a small island in Lake Chamo. Now the Ganjule speakers have relocated to the west shore of the Lake. There still are about 1,000 monolinguals in this language.[2]

Blench (2006) lists Gidicho, Kachama, and Ganjule as separate languages.Ethnologue gives Gatame/Get'eme/Gats'ame as a synonym; however, Blench treats that as a separate language as well, a synonym with Haruro/Harro. While he moves the others to the northern branch of the Ometo languages, he leaves Gatame/Haruro in the eastern branch.[3] No evidence is presented for treating these as separate languages.
