Personal Pronouns Exercises For Swahili Grammar


Exercise 1: Fill in the blank with the correct personal pronoun (subject case)


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.
