Bongo di ezuru tu.

This dress is long.

Gauni hili ni refu.


Mavile bongo angu ambiza ni ‘di ambu ru.

This jersey is big.

Sweta hii ni kubwa.


Mavile jurua buku ‘bazu ‘diri amburu.

This bag is big.

Mkoba huu ni mkubwa.


Ma bongo ba ‘di caku…

This belt is…

Mkanda huu ni…


Sapau ‘diri gaa ru.

This hat is small.

Kofia hii ni ndogo.


Bongo su pa ‘diyi alia ru.

The socks are short.

Soksi hizi ni fupi.


Te jijima ‘diyi o’diru…

But these shoes are new.

Lakini viatu hivi ni vipya.


Caki ma ni kilili.
