About Chichewa Dictionary
**Brand Description: Chichewa Dictionary Project**
The Chichewa Dictionary Project is a vital resource that champions the Chichewa language, one of Malawi’s primary national languages, and its significance beyond borders, including Zambia and parts of southern Africa. With its latest edition published in 2016 by Oxford University Press, the dictionary boasts nearly 900 pages and over 45,000 entries, making it an essential tool for language learners, travelers, and those in diaspora.
This initiative, started by Steven Paas in 1997, addresses the communication barriers faced by non-native speakers and is particularly useful for those engaging with Chichewa speakers across the globe. The dictionary is available in both a portable print version and an accessible online version, catering to varying user preferences.
The project also offers learning materials, including a mini-course on Chichewa, alongside historical insights into the language’s lexicography, supporting effective communication and fostering appreciation for this rich linguistic heritage.
