Usages of mjukuu
Mjukuu wa bibi yangu anasoma darasa la saba; mjukuu wake mwingine bado ni mdogo sana.
My grandmother's grandchild is in seventh grade; her other grandchild is still very small.
Mjukuu akimtembelea, bibi huimba nyimbo za utotoni na kucheka naye.
When the grandchild visits her, grandmother sings childhood songs and laughs with her.
Mara nyingi, babu huwasimulia wajukuu wake hadithi za ajabu kabla ya usingizi.
Often, grandfather usually tells his grandchildren amazing stories before sleep.
Wajukuu wake hupenda hadithi hizo, na hucheka kwa furaha wanapomsikia.
His grandchildren love those stories, and they usually laugh with joy when they hear him.
Kila wikendi, wajukuu wa bibi huandika shajara fupi kuhusu siku yao.
Every weekend, grandmother’s grandchildren write a short diary about their day.
Test yourself: What does mjukuu mean?
