Grammar Introduction
The demonstrative adjectives in Kinyarwanda may be classified into five or six categories. In this unit we will only deal with the first four which can be translated in English either as 'this/these' for objects which are closer to you; or 'that/those' for objects which are far from you. Look at the above tableau of all classes of noun. Subject pronouns in Kinyarwanda may be used with or without a noun. They are part of a conjugated verb as shown in some examples below.
