Klingon

According to Wikipedia, there are about 170,000 speakers of Chitonga, as far as I know, there is no translation of the Bible into Chitonga, and I have yet to see as much as a pamphlet written in it.

However, both Hamlet and the Bible have been translated into Klingon. Though there are few fluent speakers, there is a Klingon language institute.

something to think about.

Interesting. Maybe you can become a translator.

Hi ya!

My wife and I (that makes us sound old) are coming to Malawi on Monday 20th Sept to teach not too far from you at a project linked to Makuzi Beach - The Shanti Trust!

I do hope that we may meet and learn a bit more from you as to what living there is really like.

We'll only be staying for 3 months but are really looking forward to it!

All the best,

Colm & Danielle
