What is the Swahili symbol for love?

There isn't one specific Swahili symbol for love. Here's why:

* Swahili is a language, not a visual symbol system: While Swahili has rich expressions and metaphors for love, it doesn't have a unique symbol like a specific heart shape or glyph.

* Cultural diversity: Swahili is spoken across many cultures in East Africa. Symbolism for love can vary widely between these cultures.

However, here are some Swahili expressions and concepts related to love:

* "Upendo" - This is the most common Swahili word for love.

* "Pendo" - A more poetic term for love.

* "Moyo" - This word literally translates to "heart" but is often used figuratively to represent emotions, including love.

While there isn't a specific symbol, the idea of love is deeply embedded in Swahili culture and language.
