APPENDIX.

SIMPLE RULES FOR PRONOUNCING AFRICAN WORDS.

The letter u, —inning or ending a word, is sounded like oo, or the French ou, thus: Uchungu—Ouchungou, or Oochungoo.

— ” a, whether at the commencement, middle, or termination of a word, sounds like ah, thus: Asama, or Ahsahmah.

— ” e, either commencing or terminating a word, as in the Yoruba word éwuré, sounds like ehwureh.

” — i, when beginning a word, as in the Kinyamwezi term ifisi, sounds like i in the English words if, is, it, in, ill; when it terminates the word, i has the shortened sound of ee; thus, ifisi, with a phonetical exactitude, would be spelled ifeesee.

The consonant M used as a prefix, as in Mtu, has a shortened sound of Um. The South African colonists, I observe, invariably spell this abbreviated sound as Um, as in Umtata, Umgeni, Umzila, which travellers in Equatorial Africa would spell Mtata, Mgeni, Mzila.

The prefix Ki, as in Ki-Swahili or Ki-Sagara, denotes language of Swahili or Sagara. The prefix U represents country; Wa, a plural, denoting people; M, singular, for a person, thus:—

U—Sagara. Country of Sagara.

Wa—Sagara. People of Sagara.

M—Sagara. A person of Sagara.

Ki—Sagara. Language of Sagara, or after the custom, manner, or style of Sagara, as English stands in like manner for anything relating to England.
