Swahili (KiSwahili) For Travelers

I guess we better start studying :/

Basic Swahili Phrases for Travelers

Greetings are important in East Africa and you don't launch into a conversation or even ask a question without first saying "hello, how are you?".

· Hello = Jambo / hujambo / Salama

· How are you? = Habari gani

· Fine (response) = Nzuri

· Goodbye = Kwa heri / Kwa herini (more than one person)

· See You Later = Tutaonana

· Nice to meet you = Nafurahi kukuona

· Goodnight = Lala salama
