Rundi uses Latin while Swahili uses Arabic. Because the two do not share an alphabet, translated output cannot be sounded out from the original spelling — copy the result directly rather than trying to transcribe it. Swahili also reads right-to-left, so the translated text appears mirrored compared with the Rundi input.
Rundi follows subject-verb-object (SVO) order while Swahili follows verb-subject-object (VSO). The translator has to rebuild each sentence rather than substitute words in place, so the output will not line up word-for-word with your input. Splitting long sentences improves accuracy.
Rundi: Approximately 10.4 million speakers in Burundi, with additional speakers in neighboring countries. Swahili: Approximately 100 million speakers, making it a widely spoken language in East Africa and a lingua franca for the region.
