Acholi language in this chapter
Study the Acholi first, then read across for the meaning. Say every line aloud and use it in a complete exchange.
Words for writing and media
Source: Peace Corps Acholi Language Manual. Short selections are organized here for study; use the full manual for audio-linked drills, grammar notes, and extended dialogues.
From speech to writing
Writing cannot rely on tone, gesture, and shared context in the same way speech can. Make relationships between ideas clear.
Turn a one-minute voice message into a polished paragraph.
Publish responsibly
Check spelling, names, consent, cultural context, and audience. Invite a fluent editor to review public-facing Acholi.
Create a bilingual community post and record the corrections.
Learn with care
These spellings follow the Peace Corps Acholi Language Manual. Pronunciation, spelling, and usage can vary by speaker and region, so confirm public-facing language with fluent Acholi speakers.
