In the context of Southern African languages, isiZulu and siSwati allow for the object marking of locative nouns. Both of these languages belong to the Nguni group and exhibit a system where locatives can be marked as objects.

Setswana and Lozi typically do not use object marking for locative nouns in the same way.

So, the languages that allow for the object marking of locative nouns are:

  1. isiZulu
  2. siSwati
