Originally published in 1915, this book formed the first English
monograph on the Swahili dialects. Detailed information is
presented on variations between the many different dialects,
together with an appendices section which includes the poem 'The
Inkishafi', in both Swahili and an English translation. A
significant aspect of the text is that it was written at a time
when the newer dialect of Zanzibar was rapidly supplanting numerous
older dialects; it can thus be seen as an important document of the
Swahili language during a period of change. This book will be of
value to anyone with an interest in Swahili and the development of
linguistics.
