More about the population of Tanzania
Population in Tanzania: 50 to 60 million inhabitants
Tanzanian culture is very accessible. The people are known to be among the friendliest in Africa. Tanzanian people are eager to help and very polite. They love children and enjoy a friendly chat with tourists. You will find that they are very interested to know where you come from, what your daily life is like and what your family background is. Public displays of affection between men and women are considered inappropriate. When touring the country, you can speak English with your tour guide and the Tanzanian people who work in the accommodations. However, the majority speak only Swahili. It will be highly appreciated if you can speak a little Swahili, so learning a few words is worth the effort. It’s not that hard:
Swahili
Pole pole: Take it easy/ slowely slowely
Asante: Thank you
Kwa heri: Good bye
Tutaonana: See you later
Lala salama: Sleep well
Safari njema: Have a good trip
Hamna shida: No problem
