KISW 202 Kiswahili Grammar and Translation II

This course is the continuation of 201. The objectives include strengthening those aspects of Kiswahili grammar already covered and to focus on new topics concerning derivational morphology such as nominal and verbal derivations, verb extensions including expressions of mood and other critical aspects of Kiswahili grammar that are associated with noun and verb formations. Emphasis will be placed on improving students’ basic skills in translation. At this stage students should be able to translate simple Kiswahili texts and documents with particular attention to basic Kiswahili grammatical aspects learnt in class.
