Questions & Answers about Yara suna so su yi wanka da safiya.

What does each word in Yara suna so su yi wanka da safiya correspond to in English?

A rough word‑for‑word breakdown is:

• Yara – children
• suna – they are (3rd person plural + continuous/habitual aspect)
• so – like / want
• su – they (subject pronoun for the next verb)
• yi – do / make (here: take, as in “take a bath”)
• wanka – bath / bathing
• da – with / at / in (a general preposition, here used for time)
• safiya – morning

Very literal idea: Children they-are liking they do bathing in morning.
Smooth English: The children like to bathe in the morning or The children want to have a bath in the morning.

Why is suna used instead of just su at the beginning?

Suna is actually su + na fused together:

• su – they
• na – continuous / habitual aspect marker

So suna means they are (doing something) or they (habitually) do (something).

You use suna before a main verb to say what people are doing now or usually do.
Here, suna so… = they (habitually) like / they currently want…

Why do we need another su before yi? Why not just ?
