If you go anywhere in southern Africa 🌍 like for example Zambia 🇿🇲 & south africa 🇿🇦 shares a lot in common here in Zambia we call it traffic lights Robots also in south africa is called Robots 🤷🏿♂️
Zambians are friendly and have manners. I like your video, but I think it would help if you could get to the point of each thing that you want to say more concisely and with less repetition.
-The squeezing in buses in only in Lusaka. -Tuk tuk are seen as unsafe. -Almost all Southern African countries call traffic lights robots 😅 All in all Zambians are ambitious people with a respect for culture. Glad you visited Zambia 🫶🏾
I like your honest & the cultural shocks are actually not bad. I too had a cultural shock in 1997 to hear about 1K being called pini. I discovered then that it was a nickname for 1K because the people who used to buy good in lower denominations of the currency were now being subjected to buying them in thousands. The pain they felt economically was like the way your foot steps on a pin (pini) Thus was was was used as derogatory term 1K has no become an acceptable term to describe it. Therefore, next time you buy goods worth 10 shillings, you can call them 10 pini.
Wow! You have schooled me today…. I had no idea there was this magnificent story behind the name pin. I just thought it was a slang. Thank you for this elaborate explanation 🙂
Your explanation is wrong. It has nothing to do with pain. Money was stacked and pinned in values of one thousand. If someone says he has 2pin, it meant 2stacks of one thousand. 5pin means 5 thousand kwacha.
No. The pin came a pin that was placed on twenty K 50 notes that made K 1000. The one Kwacha you see is actually K 1000. We just rebased by removing the zeros. So we used to call K 1000 one pin and it was transferred to K 1 after rebasing.
hehehe at about 10 20 hours you asked why we refer to traffic lights as robots. It comes from automation. The original image of a robot was a machine that could talk and perform actions with lot's of flashing lights about it.
Your Dancing is so Good! Thanks! for appreciating Zambia! Zambians have copied alot from Afrikaans, in South Africa so you find words like Robots meaning Traffic Lights, Coloureds meaning Mixed Race, Foosake meaning Go! or get away from me, Basop meaning Watch out, Poloni meaning Salam, these are all South African Afrikaaner Words
I like your observation about my country Zambia, when it comes to traffic....some of us who have been to East Africa don't even complain about it because its nothing here in Zambia. I am enjoying your video, God bless you.....ONE AFRICA, ONE NATION & ONE PEOPLE!!!!!
