What is Afrilingual Sounds?

Afrilingual Sounds is a professional East African language service company founded in 2023 and based in Kigali, Rwanda. We work exclusively with native East African linguists and voice actors who deeply understand local culture. Services include translation, voiceover, subtitling, localization, interpretation, voice actor hiring, and photography and videography through our AfriCinematic division — serving businesses, NGOs, and organizations across 40+ languages and reaching over 642 million people.

What languages does Afrilingual Sounds translate?

Afrilingual Sounds translates 40+ languages including East African English, East African French, Swahili, Kinyarwanda, Kirundi, Luganda, Lingala, Amharic, Oromo, Somali, Tigrinya, Arabic, Kikuyu, Luhya, Dholuo, Kamba, Runyankore, Acholi, Nyamwezi, Chaga, Afar, Nuer, Kikongo, Tshiluba, Sukuma, and many more East African and DRC languages. All work is by native speakers.

Can Afrilingual Sounds translate English to Kinyarwanda?

Yes. Afrilingual Sounds specialises in English to Kinyarwanda translation, Kinyarwanda to English translation, and Kinyarwanda to French translation. All work is performed by native Kinyarwanda speakers based in Rwanda. We handle documents, legal texts, medical content, NGO reports, websites, subtitles, and voiceover scripts.

Does Afrilingual Sounds offer English to Swahili translation?

Yes. We provide professional English to Swahili and Swahili to English translation for documents, websites, apps, subtitles, and voiceover scripts — all by native Swahili speakers across East Africa.

Does Afrilingual Sounds translate DRC languages like Lingala, Kikongo, and Tshiluba?

Yes. Afrilingual Sounds covers all major DRC languages including Lingala, Swahili (Eastern DRC), Kikongo (Kituba), Tshiluba (Luba-Kasai), Kinyarwanda, Kirundi, and French — making us a trusted translation partner for the DRC market of over 100 million people.

Can Afrilingual Sounds help hire an East African voice actor?

Yes. Afrilingual Sounds manages a curated network of professional East African voice actors across 40+ languages. We match clients with culturally authentic talent for commercials, e-learning, films, IVR systems, and radio in Kinyarwanda, Swahili, Kirundi, Lingala, Amharic, Somali, Luganda, and more.

Why is professional translation better than Google Translate for African languages?

Google Translate has very limited accuracy for East African languages, especially regional dialects. It misses cultural context, produces unnatural phrasing, and generates errors that damage credibility in legal, medical, and NGO documents. Afrilingual Sounds delivers native-speaker translation that is culturally accurate and professionally reviewed — trusted by 58+ clients worldwide.

What is AfriCinematic?

AfriCinematic is the photography and videography division of Afrilingual Sounds based in Kigali, Rwanda. We specialise in gorilla trekking photography at Volcanoes National Park, wildlife safari photography at Akagera and Nyungwe Forest, luxury travel and honeymoon photography, family vacation photography, cultural experience documentation, and conference and corporate event videography across Rwanda.

How much do translation or voiceover services cost?

Pricing depends on the language pair, document type, word count or duration, and turnaround time. Afrilingual Sounds accepts payment in USD, RWF, and EUR. We provide transparent, itemised quotes for every project with no hidden fees. Contact info@afrilingualsounds.com or call +250 725 479 505 for a free quote.
