How to use the Swahili Discussion Forum

We do not provide technical support for the Swahili Discussion Forum. Please read this page for information that may answer your questions. If the discussion forum site appears to be completely out of service, please contact us and we will try to fix the problem right away.

To use the discussion forum, you must be registered with the Kamusi Project. Registration is fast and free, and we will never spam you or give away your personal information. You can register here.

We have five public folders. "How do you say" is the place to ask questions about how to say things in Swahili, or to discuss specific translations. "Ideas" is the place to make suggestions for how to improve the Kamusi Project in the future. "Edits" is the place to discuss particular dictionary entries - if you think an entry needs improvement, but you would like to discuss the entry with others participants before making changes in the Edit Engine, "Edits" is the place for you. "Africa" is the place to talk about history, travel, politics, or whatever else you would like to discuss - the focus of the discussion is usually East Africa, where Swahili is spoken. "Wanafunzi" is the place for students of Swahili to correspond with each other - if you are learning Swahili, you may not have many other people to talk with, so use the "Wanafunzi" forum to meet and talk with other learners.
