There are more than fifteen million native speakers of Chichewa, or Chinyanja, in Malawi, and in parts of Zambia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and South Africa; thus Chichewa is probably the most widely spoken African language across the regions of Southern and South-Central Africa, used extensively in the private and public spheres: in the family, schools, government, NGOs and media communications. This is the first authoritative, and most comprehensive dictionary of its kind, a notable scholarly endeavour, and with major practical applications. The dictionary grew from an ad-hoc missionary publication of Chichewa/English translations from the 1970s, but far exceeds the scope of any previous efforts to transcribe the Chichewa language, provide accurate English equivalents, and reach a popular audience. It is a 'live text', taking in native speakers' collections of Chichewa vocabulary, contemporary usage, as well as contributions from scholars in African languages; and it pays heed to the close interaction between Chichewa and English and how the languages influence one another when both are widely spoken. In Africa it aims to be the first popular Chichewa/English dictionary for all levels of language use; outside Africa, it is aimed at foreign visitors and workers dealing with the Chichewa languages in professional and tourist capacities, in government and NGO communities, the media, academia and in specialist fields such as medicine, information technology and the law.

Chewa, also known as Nyanja, is a Bantu language spoken by 12 million people in much of Southern, Southeast and East Africa, namely the countries of Malawi and Zimbabwe, where it is an official language and Mozambique and Zambia where it is a recognised minority language. The noun class prefix chi- is used for languages, so the language is usually called Chichewa and Chinyanja (spelled Cinianja in Mozambique). In Malawi, the name was officially changed from Chinyanja to Chichewa in 1968 at the insistence of President Hastings Kamuzu Banda (himself of the Chewa people), and this is still the name most commonly used in Malawi today. In Zambia, the language is generally known as Nyanja or Cinyanja/Chinyanja '(language) of the lake' (referring to Lake Malawi). This English - Chichewa and Chichewa - English Dictionary (Chingerezi / Chichewa / Dikishonale), contains 15,000 entries. It is based on our Words R Us - Wordnet implementation (www.wordsrus.info) which enables pairing the Chichewa language with hundreds of others. It was created using dozens of sources including academic papers on the language as well as native speakers.

Chichewa, or Chewa, is a Bantu language spoken in parts of Malawi, where it is an official national language along with English, and also in Zambia, Mozambique, where the language is known as Nyanja or Chinyanja, and Zimbabwe. Between 7 and 8 million people speak Chichewa.There are some differences between the Chewa of Malawi and the Nyanja of Zimbabwe, however they are not considered separate languagesChichewa is somewhat related to Swahili but without the Arabic loans found in Swahili. Chichewa has some English loan words since English is the official language of Malawi, but English is understood and spoken by relatively few people there and in neighboring countries of Zambia where the language is generally known as Nyanja or Cinyanja/ChinyanjaThis bilingual dictionary contains 1,800 terms with hundreds of pictures to help you learn Chichewa if you are and English speaker, or learn English, it you are a Chichewa speaker. The photos are arranged by category and includes, food, directions, sightseeing, science and society. This dictionary will help you master the heart language of Malawi and significant parts of the populations of Zambia, Mozambique and other Central African countries.
