How closely related is Swati with Shona? I realised that some words are not so expressive of "h" where it should be in Zulu, but in Shona the "h" is there, not as visible; but expressive in vowel sense as in Swati; I am loving these vowel lessons as I am Swati as well

Hi this sound good thanks for the lessons i am marring a Zim guy i have been to Zim so many times but the i cant understand most of the words..... this is helping alot
Mangwanani is" Good morning", MAMUKA SEI is two words which translate to "How well did you wake up" . There is no English equivalents literally. The next best equivalents is would be "how are you". " How are you" literally would be "muri sei" which is not conventional shona but has been added to shona colloquial or slang to make a direct or literal translation for "How are you". Muri sei - is not something you would here someone in their 70's coz they never used such phrases when they were younger. Its a fairly young phrase. People maybe who are 50 and younger use this, and more commonly in urban setting. Hope i'm making sense to you

Hi is KUDGA not spelt KUDYA? Not sure if we have any Shona word ending with DGA.
Bry Maude It is kudya.no shona words ending in dga.
I thought Makasimba here ? Is used when you have not seen someone in a long time
wow this is fun
very helpful thank you
Thanks dude
Ndinotenda zvikuru mukoma.
I love that kind of music, it reminds me Africa, Keep up good job. Thank you bro,
Makasimba is not the next statement. In the morning u should say mamuka sei ?😐
LinkRoyal77 you can say mamuka sei or manguanani
Hi Thulani, I thought KUDGA is spelt KUDYA?
you are right "Mangwanani (then the response), mamuka sei (response" - that's more common way exchanging morning greetings
Greetings are a very important thing in all of Africa not just Zim😂😂
Jair Vera and?
+Litty Mcfitty what do you mean and?
Actually its sooo very different they take greetings to a different level. Much more respectfull than the plain english greetings
Thank you so much ,)
Thanks tulani
learning. thank you for the lessons.
