The word for blessing is baraka (from the same root as the names of the President of the U.S.A., the former premier of Israel, and the deposed president of Egypt). For gift it's zawadi. Baraka, Gifti (the English word), and Zawadi are all common Swahili names.

How do you say 'many blessings' in Swahili?

in Swahili many is mingi though they're is many different words for many.in Swahili blessings is karama. Many blessings is mingi karama.All of the above is wrong. Many is an adjective, and the Swahili equivalent is -ingi, which takes different prefixes to agree with nouns. The word for blessing, both sing. and pl., is baraka. So "many blessings" is baraka nyingi. (Mingi would agree nouns in the same class as miti, trees: miti mingi, many trees.)Karama is a noun in Swahili, but it doesn't mean blessing, which in Swahili (baraka) as in English means a gift from God.
