Kwaheri was Swahili for "goodbye". Hikaru Sulu offered this to Nyota Uhura in 2294. She responded with "Kwaheri". (TOS novel: The Fearful Summons)

In 2371, Benjamin Sisko named his lightship Baraka, after the Swahili word for "good fortune". (DS9 episode: "Explorers", Star Trek: Customizable Card Game)
