Swahili Language Programs

Picha. Muziki. Redio. Sound familiar? These words for picture, music, and radio are Swahili words borrowed from English. With roots in the Bantu language, there is a surprising amount of words borrowed from other languages, including Arabic and Portuguese. If you’ve seen The Lion King, then you’ve already heard a few Swahili words (asante sana, squash banana!). Watching cartoons can only get you so far, but...hakuna matata. Swahili language programs abroad will fully immerse you in the language, and you definitely won’t regret joining the 140 million people who joke, speak, and sing in Swahili!

A Guide to Swahili Language Programs Abroad

Best Locations

Swahili, or KiSwahili, is the most common language in the African Great Lakes region, including Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda.

Kenya. Culturally and geographically, this is a country of stark contrasts, hosting over 45 tribes and 28 million people speaking dozens of languages. Swahili is an official language in Kenya, so almost anyone you talk to will help you practice. There will be plenty to do during your down time, too. Take a swim in Africa’s largest lake, Lake Victoria, or hike up Mount Kenya, Africa’s second tallest mountain.

Tanzania. Throughout Tanzania, Swahili is quickly replacing local dialects and becoming the main language. If you plan to live, work, or travel in Africa, Tanzania is one of the easier places to pick up Swahili. Hearing English (which happens to be the other official language of the country) can be a relief, and rest assured, you’ll be understood when you’re not sure how to say things like “where is the bathroom?” in Swahili.

Uganda. Both English and Swahili are commonly spoken in Uganda. Other than having blatantly perpetuated anti-LGBT policies, Uganda remains one of the safest destinations in Africa. It’s also one of the most beautiful and packs a punch for its size.
