Dictionary - Mtanthauziramawu: Chichewa / Chinyanja - English //
English - Chichewa / Chinyanja (3rd Edition). The English language
has acquired an important position in the societies of Central and
Southern Africa. However, the vernacular languages have remained
indispensable vehicles of communication. For more than 15 million
people in Malawi, Tanzania, Zambia, Mozambique, Botswana, Zimbabwe
and South Africa, Chinyanja or Chichewa has become the most
important language of daily life.The language has gained importance
and strength by developments in its written and oral use, and
because an increasing number of its speakers have come to discover
and emphasise their common linguistic heritage and practice. In
that way it has become an intermediary language for all Malawians,
and for many ethnic groups in the whole of Central and Southern
Africa. This edition of the Chichewa / Chinyanja Dictionary has
more than 43,000 entries from and into English. It is an instrument
for Africans and expatriates, foreign workers and visitors,
students and teachers, and for those who deal with English and
Chichewa at a scientific or scholarly level. May it reduce the
language barrier between users of English and of Chichewa /
Chinyanja.

In the 1990s federal laws were created to encourage the teaching
and speaking of American Indian languages. The "Dictionary of
Jicarilla Apache," developed within the auspices of the Jicarilla
Apache Nation Cultural Preservation Program with support from the
Jicarilla Apache Nation Tribal Council and funding from the
National Science Foundation, provides documentation of Jicarilla
Apache, an Eastern Apachean language, and is intended to provide
the basis for classroom and home teaching of the language. This is
the first large-scale dictionary of any of the Eastern Apachean
languages.
The editors are scholars specializing in Native American
languages who worked with Wilhelmina Phone, Maureen Olson, and
Matilda Martinez, native Jicarilla speakers. Together they created
this dictionary, which will be a valuable teaching and learning
tool for instructing children and young adults in the Jicarilla
Apache community who otherwise have no sustained contact with their
heritage language. Today there are fewer than three hundred native
speakers of Jicarilla Apache, and the majority of them are elderly.
The school-age population is in the hundreds and this dictionary
has been specifically developed to support language learning in
their schools. Other Apachean peoples, as well as linguists and
anthropologists, will find the dictionary useful as well.
Included here are over five thousand entries organized both
alphabetically and by semantic field. The "Dictionary" also
includes a grammatical sketch of the language and a guide to using
the dictionary, in addition to the Jicarilla Apache to English
dictionary, an English to Jicarilla index, and a lexicon organized
according to semantic domainssuch as plants, animals, household
items, etc., and for nouns and for verbs and semantic and
grammatical groupings such as descriptions, activities, and motion
verbs.
