10 year old speaks 11 languages! – including swahili
August 24, 2009 by Admin · Leave a Comment
Arpan Sharma, 10, from The Blue Coat School, Edgbaston, Birmingham, has reached the final of a national language contest for the second year. Arpan speaks his mother tongue Hindi at home, learnt four languages at school and has been using interactive, multimedia CD-ROMs for the others.
Amazing story, interesting he adds the fact that he had some challenges picking up the Swahili Language
Interesting quote from the Dean
It certainly makes children able to appreciate language more and makes them realise that it’s not something that’s simply spoken by ‘funny foreigners’.

This is a song my little daughter learned from a movie, about three years ago, and she still sings it at bedtime sometimes, she uses it as a lullaby for her dolls, She’s only five yr old, but has a very good memory, and retention skills.
The sound of it is very calming and relaxing for her, that she insists that I sing fo her sometimes, But what bothers me is the fact that I don’t know what we are singing. I’m clueless about the meaning of this words:
” Imba wimbo wa upepo
wakati unajiwa na
Imba wimbo wa upepo
wakati ndoto tamuLala mpaka usiku uisheni
upepu wa usiku wimbo wakona
Wimbu Wangu Unendelea
Imba wimbo wa upepo
wakati unajiwa na
Imba wimbo wa upepo
wakati ndoto tamuLala mpaka usiku uisheni
upepu wa usiku wimbo wakonaUpepu wa usiku wimbo wakona
Unaendelea milele”
Can anybody help?
Thanks, I’ ts from the movie Mighty Joe Young, indeed.
For those who wonder, here’ s the song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2lhhZiZwrQ
And here’ s Charlize Theron (the movie star) singing it.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGZG4k5dFeI&feature=related
Still my personal favorite is the one with the African Choir.
It’s called Windsong 
Sing a song
And for a moment
You will be visited by the wind
Sing a song
And for a moment
Dream sweetly of the wind
Sleep now until the night is dawn
The wind and the night song, they are there
However the song, my child, will go on forever.
Bye
