Usages of kuchana
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.
Usitumie mkasi kukata nywele bila kuchana kwanza.
Do not use scissors to cut hair without combing first.
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.
Test yourself: What does kuchana mean?
