    Hello from Australia, in my mother's country we refer (out of respect) to strangers and family friends as brother/sister/uncle/aunty/grandmother/grandfather.
    Is this accepted in the Swahili language or does it sound weird as in European languages. I know that men sometimes call their wives Bibi. Could you please explain these a bit further? I would really appreciate it. Great video btw 👍👍❤️

    Swahili IS difficult. For example : There are 4 ways to say " my " : yangu , changu, wangu and langu. And it is like puzzling for me . In english you just say " my". It just not change. But here it changes. Depending on the noun that follows. My bed = kitanda changu. My friend = rafiki yangu. My wife = mke wangu . My bag = begi langu.And that is just one example. I am really trying and I will keep on going but "Kiswahili si rahisi. Kiswahili ni ngumu sana."
