Stop saying "nilisoma" when you mean "nilimsomea" 🤯

The difference? One sounds like a textbook... the other sounds like you've been speaking Swahili your whole life.

Here's what most learners miss:

❌ "Nilisoma" = I read (basic, flat, robotic)

✅ "Nilimsomea" = I read FOR HER (personal, meaningful, natural)

These 4 little endings (-ia/-ea/-lia/-lea) are the SECRET to sounding like a native speaker:

• "Alimnunulia" = He bought FOR HER

• "Tunawaandikia" = We write TO THEM

When you master these extensions, Swahili speakers will literally stop and ask "Wait, where did you learn that?" 🔥

You don’t need more overwhelm.
You need a clear path — and someone in your corner.

Let’s make Swahili your superpower. I’ve got you.

Let’s talk about who we’re talking about; literally.

The A-Wa noun class in Swahili is used for people and animals, and it plays a huge role in how you form sentences across tenses.

But here’s the part most learners miss:
👉 You have to adjust your subject prefixes and your verbs based on the noun class and the tense.

For example:

• Anafanya kazi = He/she is working

• Wanafanya kazi = They are working

• Alifanya kazi = He/she worked

• Wamefanya kazi = They have worked

Same verb root — but completely different meaning depending on tense and noun class.

Getting this right is key if you want your Swahili to actually make sense to native speakers.

🎧 In this week’s podcast episode, I’m breaking down:

• How noun class A-Wa works

• The most common tense combos

• Why this unlocks smoother conversation skills
