The Kamusi Kuu ya Kiswahili (Comprehensive Kiswahili Dictionary) is a brainchild of the National Kiswahili Council (Baraza la Kiswahili Tanzania – Bakita) in partnership with Longhorn Publishers Tanzania Ltd.
Actual launch of the dictionary took place within the Parliament’s debating chamber in a symbol of the importance of the legislature in advancing the language, touted as being one of the major factors behind Tanzania’s unity.
