I have been Internet shopping for a Swahili language program...
I finally found one, thanks to Dan Hamer.
Here are a few handy Swahili phrases for you; try using them in conversation this week. (Swahili is pronounced exactly as it is written...no phonetic tricks like English)
1. Hello: Jambo
2. You are Welcome: Karibu
3. No worries: Hakuna Matata (and my mom said I wouldn't learn from watching TV)
4. See you later: Kwaheri
5. Thank you so much: Asante sana
6. My best friend: Marafiki Malele
7. I love you: Nakupenda
8. God loves you: Muungu a nakupenda
9. Bathroom: Choo (pronounced Cho, as in Cho Chang--Harry Potter's love)
10. Dairy Dots: Inastua Mbua
