About the Book

This dictionary book is an attempt to try to preserve the Kamba community language, customs and culture through words and their meanings. Even though some words do have same spellings, their pronunciations are different, which then makes them have more than one meaning, as it is carefully demonstrated in this book. It is also notably observed that the Kamba people whose language is Kikamba uses five vowels, which are A E I I O U U out of the twenty-six alphabetical letters commonly used in the dictionary internationally.
