**Removed on 2 October 2026** because their terms do not allow redistribution here: YouTube language-course audio, JW.org text, Zambezi Voice / BembaSpeech transcripts (CC BY-NC-ND), a UNZA Nyanja phrase book and a LATAZ syllabus.

If you hold rights in anything here and want it removed, write to [email protected] and it will be taken down.
