Stop saying "nilisoma" when you mean "nilimsomea" 🤯

Stop saying "nilisoma" when you mean "nilimsomea" 🤯

The difference? One sounds like a textbook... the other sounds like you've been speaking Swahili your whole life.

Here's what most learners miss:

❌ "Nilisoma" = I read (basic, flat, robotic)

✅ "Nilimsomea" = I read FOR HER (personal, meaningful, natural)

These 4 little endings (-ia/-ea/-lia/-lea) are the SECRET to sounding like a native speaker:

• "Alimnunulia" = He bought FOR HER

• "Tunawaandikia" = We write TO THEM

When you master these extensions, Swahili speakers will literally stop and ask "Wait, where did you learn that?" 🔥
