Kinyarwanda cyanje n'igikye... or not.

The native language of Rwanda is Kinyarwanda, and the part of this post's title that you didn't understand is "I speak a little Kinyarwanda."  Fortunately, English and French are also spoken in Rwanda, so communication shouldn't be too difficult, right?  Want to brush up on your Kinyarwanda?  Check out some common phrases.

  1. Two words we may want to get very familiar with:

    Rain - imvura or la pluie
    Mosquito - umubu or le moustique

    My French is rusty but I still remember some vocabulary!
