About the Swahili Language

Swahili (Kiswahili) is the most widely spoken African language, serving as a lingua franca across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and parts of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Roughly 200 million people use it, though most as a second language. In the United States the Swahili work we handle is predominantly USCIS asylum and refugee documentation tied to ongoing conflicts in the African Great Lakes region, alongside healthcare and family-court translations. Swahili is written in the Latin alphabet and incorporates significant Arabic vocabulary — a legacy of centuries of Indian Ocean trade.

  • Primary regions: Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda and more
  • Language origin / family: East Africa
  • Estimated speakers: 80 million
