Pure Swahili is NOT our local dialect..So it beats sense Why they Should put it as Default..Let English be Default and for those who need swahili can Change to it as was before..Am not being un- patriotic, It's Just such a bore to keep switching back to English..and Yes, even a sheng link..My grandmother Knows the meaning of "Chapaa" and "Bonoko" but has no idea what the Hell Ramani or wavuti means..
90 percent of Kenyans? I beg to differ maybe Nairobians, let google
be, why is Kiswahili recognised by our constitution as a national
language, better still how will the rest of the country close to
fifteen million benefit? This is the reason we are talking about
Kenyans for Kenyans we need equal opportunities for all , those who
have been involved in ICT sensitization activities mashinani
appreciate what google is doing. Localization is key to bridging the
digital divide.
