Usages of adhabu
Mvulana yule alikwepa adhabu kwa kujieleza kwa ufasaha, ingawa mwalimu alikuwa mkali.
That boy avoided punishment by explaining himself eloquently, even though the teacher was strict.
Mwalimu alisema adhabu si lazima kama mwanafunzi akijirekebisha haraka na kuheshimu sheria.
The teacher said punishment is not necessary if a student corrects himself quickly and respects the rules.
Test yourself: What does adhabu mean?
