1. ^ Bolton, Caitlyn (2016), “Making Africa Legible: Kiswahili Arabic and Orthographiic Romanization in Colonial Zanzibar”, in American Journal of Islam and Society‎[1], volume 33, number 3, →DOI, page 71 of 61–78:
   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.
