Opis

This book teaches Swahili in its social and cultural context. It introduces the language in a natural manner, beginning with real-life situations in dialogue form, many of which also reveal African cultural attitudes and societal ideas to the reader. Grammar and vocabulary are introduced gradually, along with necessary pronunciation guides.
