Have a great site for you ;)


Explanation:
Volgens onderstaande internetsite (en daar baseer ik me op want ik ken niks van Swahili)

thank you: asante
thank you very much: asante sana
(je kan zelfs naar de uitspraak ervan luisteren)

Bij de tweede referentie kan je happy new year vinden: mwaka mpya


Succes ermee!
