Common Kinyarwanda to Romani phrases

100 practical Kinyarwanda to Romani phrases for travel, study, work, and daily conversation.

← Back to Kinyarwanda to Romani Translator

Looking for practical Kinyarwanda to Romani phrases? This free guide lists 100 essential sentences for travel, study, work, and everyday conversation. Each line shows the Kinyarwanda phrase first, then the Romani translation (Romani) — so you can scan quickly before a trip, class, or video call.

The phrases are grouped into eight topics: greetings and pleasantries, useful phrases for travellers, everyday conversation, directions and getting around, shopping and dining, emergencies and health, work and business, and time, days and numbers. Use the table of contents to jump straight to greetings, directions, dining, emergencies, or numbers. You do not need perfect grammar to start — short, clear sentences often work better than silence when you are learning Romani.

Tip: read the Romani line out loud three times, then cover the Kinyarwanda side and try to recall the meaning — repetition builds memory faster than silent reading.
