Personal Pronouns Exercises For Swahili Grammar

Person involved in grammar tasks for language learningย 

Personal Pronouns in Swahili grammar are an essential part of constructing sentences and, often, their correct usage is a gateway to mastering the language. In Swahili, these pronouns replace a noun in a sentence and are typically adjusted to correspond to the noun class of the word they are replacing. They are further classified into singular and plural forms. For English speakers, a key unique feature to note is that Swahili has different pronouns for expressing subject, object and possessive cases.
