The noun classes are the most difficult thing for the non-native speaker to pick up in Kiswahili, but once you do, you will have mastered the language. HERE is a handy guide.
The same website also has a verb conjugator, parser, and some handy tools for the Kiswahili learner. If anyone has other resources to add, please comment!
