Karibuni!
Welcome to the website of our project on Swahili dialects! We are interested in the different ways Swahili is spoken, how its varieties are influenced by other languages, and what this means for speakers and their identities.
This four-year project is a collaboration between researchers at the University of Essex, SOAS University of London, Kenyatta University (Kenya) and the University of Dar es Salaam (Tanzania). The project is funded by the Leverhulme Trust.
