Usages of mpwa

Shemeji yangu alimletea mpwa wangu kandambili mpya na kanga yenye maua.

My in-law brought my niece/nephew new flip-flops and a khanga with flowers.

Mchumba wa dada yangu alimwambia mpwa wetu asichafue kanga hiyo mpya.

My sister’s fiancé told our niece/nephew not to dirty that new khanga.

Jioni, tulimpeleka mpwa wetu kwa mfamasia ili anunue dawa ya koo.

In the evening, we took our niece/nephew to the pharmacist so that he/she could buy throat medicine.

Laiti mpwa wangu asingekuwa mgonjwa, angeenda na shemeji yangu sokoni kununua kanga nyingine.

If only my niece/nephew were not sick, he/she would go with my in-law to the market to buy another khanga.
