肯尼亚英语
日耳曼语族
肯尼亚英语（语言标签en-KE）是通行于肯尼亚各地及海外肯尼亚人社区的一种本地化第二语言变体。宪法规定斯瓦希里语为国语，并将斯瓦希里语和英语均列为官方语言；英语在政府、法院、教育、商业、媒体和国际交往中具有重要作用。肯尼亚有众多语言社区，英语用法随教育、地区、场合和第一语言而异。斯瓦希里语以及基库尤语、卢希亚语、坎巴语、多卢奥语等语言的接触塑造了词汇和发音，因此不存在单一的肯尼亚口音；非重读元音发得较完整或节奏更以音节为基础等倾向也并非人人共有。正式书写通常遵循英式规范，较不正式的言语则以已稳定的肯尼亚特有义、本地造词以及同斯瓦希里语的语码转换为特色，并与城市混合语Sheng产生互动。
