Questions & Answers about Tunatarajia taasisi hii itazalisha fursa nyingi za ajira.

How is the verb tunatarajia formed? What do its parts mean?

“tunatarajia” breaks down into:
• tu- = 1st person plural subject prefix (“we”)
• -na- = present tense marker
• tarajia = verb root meaning “expect”
Altogether, tunatarajia means “we expect” or “we are expecting.”

How is the future tense of zalisha constructed in itazalisha?

itazalisha =
• i- = 3rd person singular subject prefix (“it” or “that”)
• -ta- = future tense marker
• zalisha = verb root meaning “produce”
So itazalisha literally means “it will produce.”

Why is the adjective nyingi used with fursa, rather than mengi or wengi?

“fursa” is a noun in Swahili class 9/10. The adjective for “many” has the root -ingi. You attach the noun-class prefix n- to that root, giving nyingi.
For example:
• class 9/10 prefix = n-
• adjective root = -ingi
→ n-ingi = nyingi
Other classes use different prefixes (e.g. vitu vingi for class 8 uses v-ingi → vingi).

What does the linking particle za do in fursa nyingi za ajira?

Swahili uses a genitive/linker -a to connect two nouns (think “of”). That linker must agree with the class of the first noun.
• fursa (class 9/10 plural) takes za
Therefore fursa za ajira means “opportunities of employment” (i.e. “job opportunities”).

Why does the demonstrative hii follow taasisi in taasisi hii?

Demonstratives in Swahili always follow the noun and agree in class.
• taasisi = class 9/10 singular
• demonstrative for class 9/10 singular = hii
So taasisi hii translates as “this institution.”

Why is ajira used here for “jobs” instead of kazi?

• kazi generally means “work” or “a task.”
• ajira refers specifically to “employment” or “a job position.”
Hence fursa za ajira = “employment opportunities” (more precise than fursa za kazi, which would be “opportunities for work”).
