A month ago I started an open-source project titled Pyswahili, which acts as a middleware to help non-English speakers get started with Python Programming using Swahili based keywords.
With just a twist of the dictionary file, you could make the python understand your custom language keywords.
The Project is available on GitHub as open-source under MIT Public License

pyswahili
A Swahili version of programming language to allow Swahili speakers get started with programming
pyswahili
A programming language built over Python to easily allow swahili speakers to get started with programming without ever knowing english
pyswahili is not a completely independent language but more of a swahili version of python language, syntax and language grammar is equivalent to python one with only change of keywords from english to swahili.
pyswahili Transpiler
Transpiler(Pyswahili) is for converting the swahili version of python to english version so that it can be intepreted by the python Intepreter
extension ?
There is no official extension for pyswahili, so for now .py is fine.
Repl vs Script
Similar to Python, Pyswahili supports both modes; the Read-evaluate-print(Repl) loop and Script mode Repl enable you to interactively execute pyswahili code line by line without requiring to write a complete program while on other side Script mode requires you to write your Pyswahili code on a file and run it…

I don't know Swahili, but this is awesome.
Congratulations.
Thank you Haruan
I am a swahili speaker, and I am totally impressed. Thanks for looking out for non-english speakers. This way more can learn to code. Good job.
