About Swahili Transcription
Swahili is spoken by 100M+ people worldwide, primarily in Tanzania, Kenya, DR Congo. Swahili is East Africa's lingua franca with regular phonetics, but training-audio volume is limited relative to its speaker base, so Whisper accuracy is moderate-to-good and varies by national accent.
Writing system: Swahili is written in the Latin alphabet with consistent, phonemic spelling; the older Arabic-derived Ajami script survives mainly along the historic Swahili coast.
