Shona Translations:
Enabling Local Connections in Zimbabwe and the Wider Shona Speaking Market
Shona is spoken by some 10 million people today, whose primary concentration in Zimbabwe also extends across borders into a number of neighboring countries where it has a significant cultural prevalence. Despite common misconceptions, Shona is not dialectically related to ‘Eastern Shona’ or ‘Western Shona’, which constitute distinct languages within a highly interconnected family of traditions that extends across a vast and multiethnic geographic area of Africa. With so many different cultural nuances that vary across regions, the importance of understanding local communities is critical for ensuring success in whatever product or service is entering the market. Whether you are seeking Shona to English translations or English to Shona translations, it is essential to ensure the cultural appropriateness and local sophistication of every project entering or expanding from the greater Zimbabwe market.
Through our in-country, subject matter expert linguists, and with over 20 years of experience, CSOFT understands the importance of distinguishing different dialects of Shona depending on the project.
