Founded in 2005, KASAHOROW is an independent publisher that makes bilingual books for all ages. Our name “kasahorow” means “many languages” in Akan (a language spoken in Ghana, Africa). Our company grew from our humble beginnings in college where we began drafting our very first two products (our popular Akan Learner’s Dictionary and Modern Akan Dictionary), and now 20 years later, we have helped people connect between more than 100 languages.

KASAHOROW is an homage to our love story, which weaves the tale of a modern family. The academic, career and family journeys of the founders have led us to live in multiple countries, and as a result, we speak 6 languages in our home.

Our mission has always been to connect people all over the world and help them build safe relationships through understanding each other. While some people want to connect to a particular country or language for the purposes of travel or work, others want to connect to their heritage, their ancestors, and/or to communicate in the first language of their loved ones. Whatever the reason, we are here to help anyone who is looking for meaning and connection in their life.

We are currently investing considerable love into revising all of our language products after a change in operations management. We hope you enjoy using them as much as we enjoy creating them for you. To connect with us directly, find us on your favorite social media platform by searching for “kasahorow”. And to join our growing family, subscribe to our word-of-the-day newsletter.

Very disappointing. So many words are missing that it's pretty useless. I would not call it a dictionary. Maybe a glossary. And the English-to-Swahili section doesn't even have any definitions at all, just page numbers in the Swahili-to-English section.
Update: To top it off, some definitions are just wrong. When I saw that 'lita' (ie liter) was defined as a gallon, this book went into the recycle bin.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS!!

This dictionary is far too basic, it won't even get you around Swahili speaking areas or through a basic Swahili course, it's not for anyone and I can't believe this can be sold as a credible dictionary. It's literally a few words in Swahili off the top of someone's head, the person who produced this probably doesn't even speak Swahili themselves!
If you want a proper Swahili dictionary consider the one written by Nicholas Awde, I just borrowed it from my local library and it is an actual dictionary!
Honestly this isn't even worth the one star and I'm not trying to promote for another company, but hell I am so angry. The words in here are not explained (if you're serious about learning any bantu language, explanation of noun class differences is key, especially if you're teaching yourself). It's so small, I would say it has less than 500 entries, the one mentioned above has 10.000 entries. I also have the Kasahorow Luganda "dictionary" and it is even more pathetic, this isn't worth the price, it should be free!
