Somalia Language Barrier
Posted: Wed March 3, 2004 10:07 PM UTC
I have recently been matched through my volunteer organization with a refugee family from Somalia. My agency does not have a translator. I was hoping that someone could teach me a few basics in bantu so that I can be friendly and helpful when I visit.

Thank you!

You can find some Somali Bantu language guidelines at http://www.culturalorientation.net/bantu/

Of course, Bantu is spoken in many African countries and local dialects can vary widely.

Be careful in Somalia!

With best wishes,

Sam
