Usages of sega
Dada yangu alichukua mkasi na sega kabla ya kuanza kutengeneza nywele za mtoto.
My sister took scissors and a comb before she started fixing the child’s hair.
Kabla ya kwenda shuleni, mimi hupenda kuchana nywele zangu kwa sega langu jipya.
Before going to school, I like to comb my hair with my new comb.
Asubuhi, dada yangu hutumia sega na mkasi kutengeneza nywele za mtoto.
In the morning, my sister uses a comb and scissors to fix the child’s hair.
Baba hutumia wembe kunyoa kila asubuhi, na mimi hutumia sega tu kabla ya kutoka nyumbani.
Father uses a razor to shave every morning, and I use only a comb before leaving home.
Kesho asubuhi, dada yangu atatumia sega, shampuu na krimu kabla hatujaenda kwa shangazi.
Tomorrow morning, my sister will use a comb, shampoo, and cream before we go to our aunt’s place.
Asipotumia sega, Asha hataweza kuchana nywele zake vizuri.
If she does not use a comb, Asha will not be able to comb her hair well.
