Must-Haves

This dictionary is founded on Madan's original Swahili Dictionaries. It contains not only equivalent for English words, but also short explanations in Swahili of words, phrases, and idioms occurring in modern English. Many definitions and examples contained in this work are identical to those in Madan's dictionaries, but others have been revised, and both the English vocabulary and the Swahli equivalents and definitions have been considerably augmented. The arrangement adopted is aimed at assisting the Swahili speaker in establishing the connection between the different parts of speech in English.
