Thank you for taking the time to work on the issue I raised, but I would like to raise some concerns.

First I am curious on whether or not you are a native Swahili speaker. A very large percentage of words used here seem to be generated by an LLM, as it is very unlikely for one to use them in a conversation, which is what the README is supposed to be.

However, given we are in the age of AI, I have no quarrel with you but most of the intended information is getting lost in translation, leading to a very confusing README that is hard to understand. A native speaker would have captured this and made the necessary changes.

Lastly, the formatting is just wrong:

Being a native Swahili speaker myself but also keeping in mind that I am not the owner of this repository, I'd argue the changes you made are commendable but not satisfactory.

Hi,
Well, I am not native, but I am learning it. And, I used AI, but only for grammar mistakes. I try to fix it. Thanks again:)

Okay great. I commend you for the honesty and for trying to learn the language. Its really beautiful.

Also I think there is a way I could also help you out in making the PR. I will submit my own translation and you could review it and also correct me.
