You all are cooking fish at the market.
Sitaki udaku darasani; mbona mnanong’ona badala ya kusoma?

Ninyi mnaweza kuja kwetu wikendi ili tujadili mpango wa mtihani.
You can come to our place on the weekend so that we discuss the exam plan.
Ninyi wenyewe mlichagua kukaa hapo karibu na dirisha.
You yourselves chose to sit there near the window.
Kesho saa tatu asubuhi, ninyi mtakuwa mkiandika insha zenu wenyewe kuhusu familia.
Tomorrow at nine in the morning, you will be writing your own compositions about family.
Kama mngeuliza swali lolote, mwalimu angefurahi kuwajibu.
If you all asked any question, the teacher would be happy to answer you.
Ninyi msinong’one darasani, andikeni majibu yenu kwenye daftari la mazoezi.
