Swahili


This website is all about Swahili. It talks about the origin, spread and international presence of the language. The word "Swahili" was used by early Arab visitors to the coast and it means "the coast". Swahili is a Bantu language. It is the most widely spoken language of eastern Africa.
According to the website, Swahili is one of the easiest languages to learn.

I thought this website was cool because it not only talked about the history of the language but it gave examples of how to learn the language. There was a section that had common phrases in both English and Swahili. They also had listed days of the week, times, numbers, animals and other general words and phrases. This website is one that makes learning fun!
