The name of the game Jenga is derived from a word meaning 'build' in which African language?

Answer Swahili

Jenga was created by Leslie Scott, an Englishwoman who grew up in Tanzania during the 1970s. As a child, her family invented a stacking game using blocks from the local lumber mill. Scott honored Jenga's roots in her childhood game by choosing a name derived from a Swahili word: kugenga ("to build").
