At my last few meetings to get ready for the February 26th departure date for Ribe, Kenya we were given some basic language skills. I will share a few that we were given.
Remember, this is just the basics we were given.
Jambo=hello
Habari, bwana = hello sir
Habari, bibi = hello, madam
mzuri = hello, I'm fine
goodbye = kwa heri
please = tafadhali
thank you = asante
thank you very much = asante sana
forgive me = samahani
sleep well = lala salama
yes = Ndio
No = Hapana
Cold = Baridi
Hot = Moto or Joto
water = maji
food = Chakula
no thanks = hapana tafadalhi
yes, please = ndio tafadalhi
help = Nisaidie
I can't speak Swahili = Siwezi kusema Kiswahili
