Swahili pronouns (kiwakilishi) translated into English
Pronouns are usually short words in every language, since they are said very often, and spoken languages tend to become as efficient as possible. In Swahili, it is not mandatory to have a pronoun next to a verb as in English (you can't say just went to mean you went), but that does not mean you may want to include it explicitly, if you want to stress the subject or object that the pronoun represents. These are the 10 pronouns that Swahili language has, and their meaning in English.
