well to be fair Dr bill, swahili, is a language rich in arabic words. its a fair guess that about 40% of swahili words go back to arabic. Portugues, is a big contributor too. i am not sure, but i think swahili is a creole. the basic structure come from one of the local african languages, but much of the vocabulary is imported.
