Usages of mkononi
Saa yangu ya mkononi hunikumbusha ni saa ngapi ninapaswa kuanza kazi.
My wristwatch reminds me what time I should start work.
Je, una saa ya mkononi?
Do you have a wristwatch?
Kwa sababu nilikuwa na maumivu ya kichwa na kidonda kidogo mkononi, nilipewa kidonge na plasta.
Because I had a headache and a small wound on my hand, I was given a pill and a plaster.
Test yourself: What does mkononi mean?
