📖 Mwongozo wa Kiswahili Sanifu na Sheria za Hundi Afrika Mashariki

1. Kanuni za Kiunganishi «na» kwa Mujibu wa BAKITA na CHAKITA

Katika sarufi ya Kiswahili sanifu, kiunganishi «na» hutumika kuunganisha makumi na mamoja (mfano: ishirini na tano, arobaini na nane), pamoja na kuunganisha mamia na yale yanayofuata (mfano: mia mbili na hamsini, mia saba na tano).

Tofauti na lugha nyingine, nambari zenye asili ya Kibantu (kama vile -moja, -wili, -tatu, -nne, -tano, -nane) hubadilika kulingana na ngeli, ilhali nambari zenye asili ya Kiarabu (kama vile sita, saba, tisa, kumi, ishirini) hazibadiliki.

2. Matumizi ya Neno «Laki» (100,000) Kwenye Hundi za Kibiashara

Nchini Kenya, Tanzania na Uganda, neno «laki» linatambulika kisheria na kibiashara kuwakilisha fungu la elfu mia moja (100,000). Katika uandishi wa hundi, kiasi kama 148,000 huandikwa kwa kawaida kama «laki moja arobaini na nane elfu» au mfumo wa kawaida wa hesabu «elfu mia moja arobaini na nane». Mfumo huu unakubali chaguo zote mbili.

3. Sheria ya Hundi (Bills of Exchange Act Section 9)

Kifungu cha 9 cha Sheria ya Hundi (Kenya Cap 27 na Tanzania Cap 215) kinaeleza wazi: "Where the sum payable is expressed in words and also in figures, and there is a discrepancy between the two, the sum denoted by the words is the sum payable." Hii inamaanisha kwamba iwapo nambari ina hitilafu, maneno ndiyo yanayotambuliwa kisheria.

4. Neno «Tu» na Mistari Miwili ya Kuzuia Ulaghai (Cheque Crossing)

Neno «Tu» (Only) mwishoni mwa kiasi cha maneno linazuia mhalifu yeyote kuongeza neno jingine kwa hila. Vilevile, mistari miwili sambamba (A/C PAYEE ONLY au Kwa Akaunti ya Mlipwaji Tu) inalazimisha benki kuweka fedha hizo kwenye akaunti ya benki ya mlipwaji pekee na kuzuia malipo ya fedha taslimu dirishani.

Ufafanuzi kamili wa jinsi Baraza la Kiswahili la Taifa (BAKITA) na Chama cha Kiswahili cha Taifa (CHAKITA) vinavyoelekeza uandishi wa nambari kubwa. Mfumo huu unatekeleza kwa usahihi kanuni za kuweka kiunganishi «na» kati ya mamia na makumi, kutumia maumbo sahihi ya nambari za asili ya Kibantu (kama vile -moja, -wili, -tatu, -nne, -tano, -nane) na nambari zenye asili ya Kiarabu (kama vile sita, saba, tisa), pamoja na usomaji sahihi wa kiasi cha senti.

Neno «Tu» linapotumika mwishoni mwa kiasi cha maneno kwenye hundi au stakabadhi rasmi ya malipo, linaweka kituo cha mwisho kinachomzuia mtu mwenye nia mbaya kuongeza maneno kama «na elfu hamsini» baada ya hundi kusainiwa. Vilevile, alama za reli (#) au nyota (***) kabla na baada ya maneno na nambari zinaziba nafasi zote wazi ili kuzuia ulaghai wa kifedha kulingana na miongozo ya Benki Kuu ya Kenya (CBK) na Benki Kuu ya Tanzania (BoT).

Kulingana na Kifungu cha 9 cha Sheria ya Hundi (Bills of Exchange Act Cap 27 nchini Kenya na Cap 215 nchini Tanzania), iwapo kuna mgongano au tofauti yoyote kati ya kiasi kilichoandikwa kwa nambari na kile kilichoandikwa kwa maneno, sheria inatamka kwamba kiasi cha maneno ndicho chenye nguvu kisheria na ndicho kitakacholipwa. Hundi iliyopigwa mistari miwili (Crossed Cheque / Account Payee Only) inamlinda mtoaji wa hundi kwa kuwa inazuia hundi kulipwa dirishani kwa fedha taslimu na badala yake inaingizwa moja kwa moja kwenye akaunti ya mlipwaji pekee.

Hesabu zote za kiisimu za kugeuza tarakimu kuwa maneno ya Kiswahili, kuunda picha ya hundi (Canvas), na kutengeneza ripoti za PDF/Markdown hufanyika moja kwa moja ndani ya kivinjari chako cha intaneti (100% Client-Side Engine). Hakuna nambari ya akaunti, kiasi cha fedha, jina la mlipwaji, au nambari ya KRA/TRA PIN inayotumwa kwenye seva yoyote ya nje, hivyo kulinda usiri wako wa kibiashara kwa asilimia mia moja.
