Medical Interpretation for English to Swahili
Remote hospital interpreters and translation for English to Swahili.
Swahili, a Bantu language, is a lingua franca in East Africa. It's known for its relatively simple structure, Arabic loanwords, and role as a cultural bridge in the region. Swahili is celebrated for its oral and written literature, including poetry and famous works like "Utend̠i wa Tambuka." There are differences between the Swahili spoken in Kenya as compared to Tanzania, between mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar, or between rural and urban spaces across East Africa.
Swahili is spoken extensively in countries like Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and parts of the Democratic Republic of Congo. In North America, Swahili-speaking communities consist mainly of immigrants from East Africa. These communities can be found in states with significant African immigrant populations, like Minnesota, Texas, and Georgia in the United States.
