What Is Swahili Panda?

What is Swahili Panda?

Swahili Panda is a cultural language-learning T-shirt designed to spark curiosity and conversation.

Each design teaches real Swahili verbs through visual cues, repetition, and everyday cultural context.

It’s edtech—but not school.

How it works

• Wear the T-shirt

• Read the verb patterns built into the design

• Learn Swahili naturally through culture, repetition, and conversation

That’s it.

Swahili Panda is a cultural edtech project by Mokomatic LLC (USA).

The panda you know is an attraction. This panda is an action.

In Swahili, panda is a verb — to board, to climb, to plant, to rise.

Some words sit still. Others move you forward
