I really wanna learn Swahili!!!!!!
How impressive. I admire that. My grandmother was African from Kenya and Grandfather was from Somali and both spoke Kiswahili aka Swahili, which is actually the most commonly spoken language in the sub-Saharan part of Africa. Are you going to be spending time in East Africa or do you just want to learn the language? Anyway I know a little Swahili but if you want to interact and learn from people who speak it fluently you might try going to the Kamusi Project online or you can purchase discs online at transparent.com, I’ve added the link below for you to view. I learned some words pretty quick using Rosetta stone but its kind of pricey. I’ll add that link too. I wish you the best in your learning experience. Have fun.
Is it helpful to learn Swahili or do most people in Kenya speak English.?

I’m going to Kenya for a few weeks for a work-related trip in a couple of months. I could try to learn some Swahili, but am wondering if it is worth it if most everyone can speak English. I’ll be in Kisumu.
Yes it is always useful to learn a few basic words of the main language that is used in the country that your visiting, and Kenya is no exception! Although you will find that a large proportion of Kenyans will understand English, and speak it quite well, there are some that you will find that don’t. There are many dialects spoken in Kenya and it would be impossible to speak them all, so in the main, the Swahili language is the common language used to overcome this barrier. You can find some useful Swahili words and phrases on this site that may be of use to you. http://www.glcom.com/hassan/lessons/useful_swahili_words.html Hope that you find this helps.
