    This is great. I recommend you sort out the subtitles :) Also, it would have been good to clarify that Kiswahili is another term for Swahili. Thank you. I enjoy education videos like this.

    Swahili is a spread naturally through trading and cross border activities. It will also go even to the unwilling as people intergrate for various reasons. As economies grow people need to travel, and for an African Swahili is easy to learn. One will find some very similar words to their local language. Swahili is widely spoken in Tanzania, Kenya and Eastern Congo. Business at a certain stage is more beneficial in a wide area with high population. Ugandans need not be asked whether they like Swahili or not. They will just realize that it is an important economic tool.

    Your video is biased, or you don't understand the term official, by constitution English and Kiswahili are the official languages in Uganda. That's why they are used in Government offices, Military and Schools. Luganda is just popular that doesn't mean it's official. Official and Popular are two different words.

    Once central rejected Swahili it will be next to impossible to popularise it. However try it in Eastern Uganda you'll be utterly shocked how it will catch like a wild fire. Actually a good percentage of them already speak Swahili.

  • @apolokaggwa6521
    @apolokaggwa6521 Рік тому

    Let me make this issue very clear. Luganda and English are the official languages of Uganda and never Swahili, simply because both the Luganda and the English languages are the only two in Uganda which are "national and spoken by most of the population," according to your definition. Many people have been surprised to find that no one will speak to them in Swahili when they are in Kampala the capital of Uganda. In fact, Luganda has organically become the lingua franca of Uganda. Spoken by an estimated 75% to 80% of the population of Uganda, it is the language of entertainment, commerce and now steadily the language of government. English has been taught in schools and universities throughout the country for years, but so is Luganda; wisely a concession made recently by the Ministry of Education. Of course, that is resented by the non-Baganda, whose indigenous languages are not popular or widely "spoken" in the country at all. That is why the dictatorial regime entrenched in power for 37 years has sought to impose Swahili upon us by force, even though hardly anyone speaks Swahili in Uganda; the language having time and again been rejected in our country for a century! Hence, declaring that Swahili is an official language in Uganda does not make it so, nor are we willing to have yet another foreign language imposed upon us in addition to English. Swahili is not an official language of Uganda, since it is not indigenous to Uganda, cannot be and will never be, no matter what.
