If nyama is meat and mnyama is animal, I wonder if m- indicates that an animal is kind of animated meat...
More or less ... but since the m-/wa- prefixes on nouns are almost entirely restricted to people (aside from mnyama, mdudu and a few animals which are descriptive phrases), I kind of think of it as though animals are called meat people in Swahili.
