Publisher's Synopsis
English-Kikuyu Vocabulary: Compiled For The Use Of The C.M.S. Missions In East Africa (1904) is a book that contains a comprehensive list of English words and their corresponding Kikuyu translations. The book was compiled by Arthur Wallace McGregor and was intended for use by the Church Missionary Society (C.M.S.) missions in East Africa. The Kikuyu language is one of the Bantu languages spoken in Kenya, and this book was created to aid in the communication between English-speaking missionaries and the Kikuyu people. The vocabulary is arranged alphabetically, and each entry includes the English word, its Kikuyu translation, and sometimes additional information such as pronunciation or usage. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the Kikuyu language or the history of missionary work in East Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
