Miriam1 Posted April 13, 2006 I have never heard that, swahili, the language of war? explain. Anyone that has the opportunity to learn the language within thier university should, they have introduced it last year at my school and proud to say they have expanded it further this year. So many of us are eager to learn french and spanish, but at the thought of learning swahili we shy away, why? its the most commonly used lanugage in Africa, and quite easy to grasp...

Didi Kong Posted April 13, 2006 it is just a good natured joke I use on east africans because they literally sound like they are attacking you especially when they speak english with an African accent.....but then again the same can be said for the nothern somali dialect. They offer swahili at my school too and the introductory 1st year course is a bird course and if you are a native speaker it is an easy route to getting an A.
