| twende swahili: Dialect in Swahili C. H. Stigand, 2013-03-28 Originally published in 1915, this book formed the first English monograph on the Swahili dialects. Detailed information is presented on variations between the many different dialects, together with an appendices section which includes the poem 'The Inkishafi', in both Swahili and an English translation. A significant aspect of the text is that it was written at a time when the newer dialect of Zanzibar was rapidly supplanting numerous older dialects; it can thus be seen as an important document of the Swahili language during a period of change. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Swahili and the development of linguistics. |

| twende swahili: East Along the Equator Helen Winternitz, 1987 Helen Winternitz, a seasoned African traveler, persuaded fellow Baltimore Sun journalist Timothy Phelps to travel (the hard way) 2,000 miles up the Congo River and through some of the most remote and breathtaking regions of the world. In this brilliant mix of political journalism and travel writing they witness what few Westerners have: life in the ecologically rich though financially impoverished American-backed dictatorship of Zaire, the former Belgian Congo. The journey starts from Kinshasa, east along the equator aboard a dilapidated and extravagantly overcrowded riverboat replete with hippopotamus hunters, government spies, tough women, whiskey-drinking clerics, and Congo fishermen. From the geographic center of the continent the pair strikes out overland to the Ituri rain forest (home of the pygmies), through the legendary snow-capped Mountains of the Moon, and then down to the volcano-studded savannas of the Great Rift Valley. Along the way Winternitz and Phelps fight tropical fever, the nocturnal screaming of tree hyraxes, and mud holes as deep as cargo trucks, but their most serious challenge comes when they are arrested by Mobutu's security police. Their adventure lays bare the heart of Africa--a heart filled not with darkness but with struggle and life. |

The loss of lives and countless attempts on the lives of survivors define the daring novel, The Seeming End of Hope. Some things in life are hard to imagine. None of the survivors of this conflict ever imagined that victory would come their way. The story intertwines life and death in a balance where the emphasis is more on the side of death, hence the title of the book. |

| twende swahili: Power in the Blood William N. Elwood, 1998-11-01 In this single volume, William N. Elwood has gathered potent evidence of the impact that the HIV/AIDS epidemic has had on the world, its communities, and its inhabitants, and he addresses the role of communication in affecting the way in which people respond to AIDS. With a multidisciplinary group of contributors and topics ranging from political rhetoric to interpersonal discourse, Power in the Blood offers a multitude of ways in which to think about power, politics, HIV prevention, and people living with HIV. Readers will be able to use this information in class discussions, program designs, grant applications, and research, as well as in their own lives. With this volume, Elwood makes a thoroughly convincing argument that communication is the key to understanding, treating, and preventing AIDS, and he inspires further action toward the goal of ending the AIDS crisis. |
| twende swahili: Swahili Folklore Gloria D. Gonsalves, 2022-01-16 Sometimes old memories come fl ooding back into one’s mind with nostalgic eff ect. One day my brain felt like a giant elephant as I hummed old songs and rhymes that dated as far back as my days in nursery school. My native country Tanzania was preoccupying me. I felt the urge to share these wonderful childhood memories. It was time to show my gratitude to all my teachers who made my school days a joy to remember and also to share the gift of memory with all the children in this universe. Th is book consists of nursery rhymes, songs and 20 Swahili folk tales translated into English. Th e stories were written and submitted by school children from Manundu Primary School in my hometown Korogwe. In Tanzania, oral lore is a common tradition of transmitting stories from one generation to another. I did not wish to see this knowledge get lost but get preserved in a form of written book. Th e nursery rhymes, songs and animal facts were contributed by me. Th ese were inspired by memories from my school time experiences and also a wish to instill children with an appreciation for the wild animals, especially those belonging to the List of Th reatened Animals. For every child who wishes to explore their wild and fun side, just fl ick through the pages of this book and get acquainted with the Swahili folklore and Tanzanian wildlife. Tanzania warmly welcomes you. “Karibu sana!” |
