Nyumba yangu - My House (Please correct Swahili) Nyumbani habari gani? Mimi nilikuwa na nyumba na mlima kijiji cha Malibu. Malibu alikuwa moto mkubwa na mkali. Nyumba yanko alishika moto. Hali halisi. Sasa mimi sina nyumba na mlima. Mimi nina jivu pekee. Lakini nina maisha wangu. Nina mzima na mzuri. Sino kito. Ninakuna kitu pikee kwa moyoni mangu na kichwani changu. Nilikuna vitabu vingi lakini nilijifunzi lugha ya kiSwahili. Sasa mimi sina vitabu lakini ninajifunzi lugha kiSwhaili. Mimi ninataka kuwa lugha ya KiSwahili moyoni wangu na kichwa chango; si katiba maktaba yango. Did I write it correctly, Beatrice? I'm studying without a teacher but I use iTalki today to actually speak for the first time. Here's the translation in case you didn't understand: How is everything at your home? i had a farm and a house in Malibu Malibu had a big, fierce fire My house caught fire Now I don't have a house and a farm I have only ash But I am alive and well I have nothing. I only have what is in my heart and my head. I had many Swahili books But I didn't study Swahili. Now I don't have books but I study Swahili. I want to have Swahili in my heart and my mind not my library.
