Imisebe Publishing is proud to announce the launch of the first ever siSwati monolingual dictionary, Umphandza, Sichazamagama sesiSwati. The dictionary was unveiled at a high-level ceremony officiated by the Deputy Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Eswatini, Themba Masuku, at the prestigious Sibane Sami Hotel.

The launch of Umphandza, Sichazamagama sesiSwati was especially meaningful as it coincided with the International Mother Language Day, celebrated worldwide on February 21st. This global observance promotes linguistic and cultural diversity, as well as multilingualism.

At the launch event, Hlobsile Stromvig, Managing Director of Imisebe Publishing, emphasized the significance of launching the siSwati dictionary on the occasion of the International Mother Language Day celebration.

We are excited to share this milestone achievement with the siSwati-speaking community and beyond, and we look forward to contributing to the preservation and development of the language through Umphandza, Sichazamagama sesiSwati.
