Usages of kaptula
Dada yangu huvaa blauzi nyeupe na sandaali, lakini kaka yake hupendelea kaptula nyumbani.
My sister usually wears a white blouse and sandals, but her brother prefers shorts at home.
Mtoto alilowesha kaptula yake, kwa hiyo mama aliianika nje ili kuikausha haraka.
The child got his/her shorts wet, so mother hung them outside to dry them quickly.
Wakiwa wamevaa sandaali na kaptula, watoto walicheza nje mpaka mama akawaita kwa chakula.
While wearing sandals and shorts, the children played outside until mother called them for food.
Asipovaa kaptula safi baada ya kuoga, mtoto atalalamika tena.
If he/she does not wear clean shorts after bathing, the child will complain again.
Mtoto amevaa sandaali na kaptula, lakini zipu ya koti lake iko wazi na kola yake imekunjika.
The child is wearing sandals and shorts, but the zipper of his/her coat is open and the collar is folded.
Wakiwa wamevaa sandaali na kaptula, watoto wanakimbia hadi bustanini.
Wearing sandals and shorts, the children run to the garden.
Mtoto amevaa sandaali na fulana nyepesi, lakini mama anasema kaptula yake ni fupi sana.
The child is wearing sandals and a light T-shirt, but mother says his/her shorts are too short.
Niliweka fulana yangu kwenye droo baada ya kuivua, lakini nikaacha kaptula karibu na kitanda.
I put my T-shirt in the drawer after taking it off, but I left the shorts near the bed.
