  • While Zambia has a huge number of languages the linga franca in Lusaka is Nyanja, where it has developed its own style, heavily influenced by the merging of the different peoples in the capital.
    Important words are: Muli bwanji? - How are you?
    Ndili bwino - I'm fine.
    Zingati? - How much?
    Zikomo - Thankyou.
    English is widely understood and you shouldn't have many difficulties in getting by with this.
