Usages of kikohozi
Jana sikuwa na mafua, lakini leo nina kikohozi kidogo na ninapiga chafya mara kwa mara.
I didn’t have a cold yesterday, but today I have a little cough and I am sneezing from time to time.
Kabla ya kulala, mtoto hunywa sharubati kidogo ili kikohozi kipungue.
Before sleeping, the child drinks a little syrup so that the cough decreases.
Leo nina mafua na kikohozi kidogo.
I have a cold and a little cough today.
Daktari aliniambia kwamba nikipiga chafya au nikianza kupata kikohozi darasani, nibaki nyumbani mpaka mafua yapungue.
The doctor told me that if I sneeze or start getting a cough in class, I should stay at home until the cold gets better.
Test yourself: What does kikohozi mean?
