Every word carries a history. Compiled by A. C. Madan in the early twentieth century, this classic Swahili lexicon stands as a landmark swahili to english dictionary from colonial era East Africa, capturing the contours of early 20th century Swahili as spoken across the region and presenting them with clarity for English-speaking readers. This bilingual Swahili language dictionary serves both as a practical swahili vocabulary reference and as a rich swahili translation resource for east African language study. Arranged for straightforward consultation, it supports Swahili learners and students, independent travellers, historians of the region, and anyone seeking a dependable reference for translators working between Swahili and English. More than a phrase-finder, it reflects the intellectual curiosity and linguistic discipline that shaped some of the earliest comprehensive studies of an African language. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Ideal as a complete Swahili dictionary reference for its period and a cornerstone of any African language dictionary collection, it offers both immediate utility and enduring historical insight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 466\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.04 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 26, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57155088744753,"sku":"9789354444951","price":37.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/9532\/7537\/files\/2eDkMlsdd9789354444951.webp?v=1793166721","url":"https:\/\/mitchellofficial.com\/products\/swahili-english-dictionary-paperback","provider":"MITCHELL","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
