Swahili Plant Names - Kamusi ya Majina ya Mimea

ISBN: 375830606X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
Welcome to the "Dictionary of Vernacular Swahili Plant Names," a comprehensive resource designed to bridge the gap between the rich linguistic heritage of Swahili and the scientific world of botany. This dictionary serves as a valuable tool for researchers, students, educators, horticulturists, conservationists, and anyone interested in the flora of East Africa and beyond. The Swahili language, with its deep historical roots and widespread usage across East Africa, is a cultural treasure that reflects the diverse influences of African, Arabic, Persian, and European languages. In this region, plants play a crucial role in everyday life, not just as sources of food, medicine, and material, but also as integral elements of cultural practices and traditional knowledge. The names given to these plants in Swahili are often imbued with meanings and stories that offer insights into the local culture, history, and environment. Recognizing the importance of preserving this linguistic and botanical heritage, this dictionary aims to catalogue the vernacular Swahili names of plants and provide their corresponding scientific names. By doing so, we facilitate a dialogue between traditional knowledge and scientific understanding, fostering a deeper appreciation of the natural world and its cultural significance. Each entry in this dictionary includes the vernacular Swahili name, the botanical name. The botanical names are based on the latest taxonomic classifications to ensure accuracy and relevance. We have taken great care to consult with linguists, botanists, and local communities to compile and verify the information presented in this dictionary. Our goal is to create a reliable and user-friendly reference that respects and celebrates the linguistic diversity of Swahili-speaking regions while contributing to the global body of botanical knowledge. As you explore the pages of this dictionary, we hope you will not only gain a greater understanding of the plants that surround us but also develop an appreciation for the rich linguistic tapestry that describes them. May this dictionary serve as a bridge between languages, cultures, and disciplines, fostering a shared respect for the natural world and its invaluable diversity.

The Trouble with Peace

Pages : 605
Book Description
A fragile peace gives way to conspiracy, betrayal, and rebellion in this sequel to the New York Times bestselling A Little Hatred from epic fantasy master Joe Abercrombie. "A master of his craft." —Forbes "No one writes with the seismic scope or primal intensity of Joe Abercrombie." —Pierce Brown Peace is just another kind of battlefield . . . Savine dan Glokta, once Adua's most powerful investor, finds her judgement, fortune and reputation in tatters. But she still has all her ambitions, and no scruple will be permitted to stand in her way. For heroes like Leo dan Brock and Stour Nightfall, only happy with swords drawn, peace is an ordeal to end as soon as possible. But grievances must be nursed, power seized, and allies gathered first, while Rikke must master the power of the Long Eye . . . before it kills her. Unrest worms into every layer of society. The Breakers still lurk in the shadows, plotting to free the common man from his shackles, while noblemen bicker for their own advantage. Orso struggles to find a safe path through the maze of knives that is politics, only for his enemies, and his debts, to multiply. The old ways are swept aside, and the old leaders with them, but those who would seize the reins of power will find no alliance, no friendship, and no peace lasts forever.
