Days, Months, and Seasons in Swahili

Just getting started with Swahili? Neat! Well then, this is a pretty good place to start, i.e. with the words we use when talking about time – the days of the week, months of the year, seasons, etc.

This is the kind of stuff that you use every day in your own language, so it makes sense to learn it early in Swahili too.
