Words R Us Picture Dictionary in English and Swahili
Picha ya Picha Kiingereza / Kiswahili.

This dictionary contains approximately 2,000 terms in English and Swahili. It is available in full color and an economical edition with black and white pictures. The EBOOK edition is in full color and also includes the definition of the terms in English. The terms are arranged into topics with an alphabetical index by language included.

You will find that some of the terms are the same in both languages (cognates) as many of the more recent terms have been assimilated into Swahili from English and French. This dictionary is derived from our Words R Us system, a derivative of WordNet. English Wordnet, originally created by Princeton University is a lexical database for the English language. It groups words in English into sets of synonyms called synsets, provides brief definitions and usage examples, and records a series of relationships between these sets of synonyms. WordNet can be viewed as both a combination of dictionary and thesaurus.

The pictures used in the dictionary are primarily from Pixabay and Wikimedia Commons. All are released under a GPL International Share and Share Alike With Attribution 4.0 license.

This dictionary will be indispensable for anyone wanting to learn Swahili or native speakers of Swahili who are wanting to learn English.
