    Who Speaks Swahili Here?

    In the Name of Allaah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy. By the time! Verily mankind is at loss – except for those who believe and perform righteous deeds, and advise one another towards the truth and advise one another towards patience.

    Well that could be the case. The Swahili I know (or the lack of it in my case) is spoken in Kenya, Mombassa.

    Do you know this song: mamako star, star! Ana koola fish, fish, ooji na coke! Lol.

    And how about this one: samaki akeoza msintoope, mtafote malimawo mkaooshe…..Lol, classic!

    I don't know anything.

    I had family living in Kenya and Nairobi but we are all in the UK now. I was born in the UK so I have no idea of the language.
