The Swahili language is truly considered the most widespread in Africa in general. It is an ancient language descended from the Bantu that has been circulating in Central and West Africa for a long time. It was greatly influenced by the Arabic language due to trade, while some other European languages ​​were influenced by colonialism. In the early twentieth century, nationalists in Kenya and Tanzania used the Swahili language to gather and mobilize citizens and tribes to pressure England to leave their countries. Therefore, they took great pride in their language and called it “the language of freedom.” The Swahili language is currently considered one of the most important languages ​​used in the Organization of African Unity, and also one of the most important commercial languages ​​for workers in the Indian Ocean region, in addition to being the language of the jungle that the makers of the famous Disney movie “The Lion King” used to describe some characters and dialogue words.
