Is Swahili a particularly hard language to learn for an English-speaking person?
August 9, 2008 by Admin I know there are a lot of things that someone’s ability to learn a language depends on, but, as a whole, is Swahili fairly straightforward or overly complicated? Cheers! The sound system of Swahili is quite easy for an English-speaker to learn. The problem is that the grammar is very different. Where English and the other European languages use suffixes to do all the work, Swahili uses prefixes. It’s a very interesting system, but until you get used to it it will be difficult.
