Kweli kabisa Sajini hiyo site ina mafunzo kamili ya kiswahili

ahsante Sajini.

this site is very very good. the kamusi project is not this easy to work with.hiyo site ina mafunzo kamili ya kiswahili

I just love the site. The guy should make a book out of it. I shudder to think of a day that it will be taken ofline. Kudos to him.

maria,
hii site ina mafunzo kamili ya kiswahili, means, this site has full kiswahili teachings, i can see you were puzzled,

thank you Wagithuri

kuna haya maneno yamechipuka kutokana na tekinoronjia,
Remote controler = Kitegea mbali

grobalization = Utandawazi au utandalidhi

mobile phone = Lununu
Ama kwa hakikakiswahili kinaenda na wakati.

Wagithuri,
Kweli Kiswahili chapiga hatua na jambo hilo linatia moyo sana. Nimesikia neno Lununu a,mabo limependekezwea na Sheikh Ahmed Nabhany, baadhi ya istilahi zingine. Lakini pia nimesikia mobilie ikiitwa 'simu tamba.' Je tutumie istilahi ipi?

Kwangu napenda simu tamba.

sajini,
Istilahi hiyo ya simu tamba inaonekana kuwa na maana ya moja kwa moja, kwa hivyo na iunga mkono .

Wagithuri,
Sijui wazungumzaji wa Kiswahili wapendelea kutumia istilahi ipi, lakini wacho zote zijibwage uwanjani tuone ni gani itakayoshinda.

sajini, nakuunga mkono kabisa,ndugu yangu,kumbe tumetoka wiraya moja?

Sajini,
your site excludes Uganda why??
arent we also swahili speakers(well,in truth we are not) but we too are east africans. they mention all the countries surrounding us ..kenya,tanzania, zaire,..and no Uganda!!
its not fair maybe you people feel we are different. maybe you dont want us to be like you i am so sad.i dont even feel like visiting the site anymore.

maria ,
am aware that there is a good number of ugandans who speak swahili and i hope the number is growing since we have become one region.so i dont see why you can be excluded.

but we are

No Maria,
It is not my site, it is a site which I believe is moderated by person from Tanzania. . My guess is that he took the three countries with the highest number of Swahili speakers. Tanzania (around 30 millions) Kenya (around 25 millions) DRC (around 20 millions). In uganda, they say it is between 5-10 millions. So you can see there is a significant number.

I agree that his three flags are misleading. It is unfortunate that he excludes Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi, Comoros, Northern Malawi, Northern Mozambique etc.

But this is only one person's oversight which should not drive you away from Swahili.
