I'm curious, are there a lot of Dutch people who visit Swahili speaking countries?

The Dutch colonized much of the "swahili speaking countries"

So to recap, the wa prefix is plural, and the single m prefix is singular?

Is there a reason why sisi is in lowercase?

Yes. The coastal region of Kenya is a tourist spot for many European countries. I was surprised at how good the Italian food is in Malindi because of the Europeans.

Why waholanzi and not mholanzi?

-m is singular and -Wa is plural.
