Speak Rwanda Releases First Version of Travel Language to Rwanda

The founders of Speak Rwanda, Serena & Tony Morones are pleased to release the first version of the travel language book & companion audio set to a group of George Fox students who are planning a trip to Rwanda in May 2009.

The group plans to learn basic Kinyarwanda travel phrases enabling them to have a richer experience in this African country.

When the official website is up and running, visitors will be able to purchase two versions of the guidebook with audio, Speak Now and Speak More.

Visitors to the site will also be able to listen to a free lesson in Kinyarwanda and learn some basic greetings.

The lessons and audio recordings are a collaboration between native Rwandan, Enric Sifa and linguist, Lara Messersmith-Glavin, and directed by project founder Serena Morones.
