Questions & Answers about Huduma za usafirishaji wa vifurushi ni mpya.

Why are there two wa/za words in the sentence?

They are both connectors, but they agree with different nouns.

• Huduma za usafirishaji = services of shipping / shipping services
  • huduma belongs to a noun class that uses za for this kind of connection.
• usafirishaji wa vifurushi = shipping of packages
  • usafirishaji belongs to a noun class that uses wa here.

So the pattern is:

• noun + connector + noun

And the connector changes depending on the noun before it.

In this sentence:

• huduma → za
• usafirishaji → wa

So literally, the structure is something like:

• services of shipping of packages

which in natural English becomes package delivery services or parcel shipping services.

Why is it za usafirishaji and not ya usafirishaji?
