Translation of "witch" into Swahili

After his accident, the rumor spread that he had become blind because he was a witch.

Baada ya kupata msiba huo, uvumi ulienea kwamba alipofuka kwa sababu alikuwa mchawi.

The medicine man, witch doctor, sorceress —whichever word you wish to use— claims to ensure health or restore procreative powers.

Huyo mganga, mchawi, mlozi—neno lolote lile utakalo kutumia—hudai kuhifadhi afya au kurudisha nguvu za uzazi.
