- The entirely new words were all drawn from English, recast into “Swahili” spelling and pronunciation: Equator became ikweta, number became namba, and judge became jaji. This last term is significant, given the already wide proliferation of the Arabic term for judge, qāḍī spelled locally as kadhi. However, this term was associated with Islamic, rather than European, jurisprudence.
