Jina lako ni nani?

Hello. Jina langu ni Beki. Jina lako ni nani? Nimefurahi kukutana na wewe. kukufahamu.

ku-fahumu = to understand, be acquainted

I have read your other entries and know that you are more advanced now in your Swahili. So you probably already know that the infix "ku" means "you" and renders "na wewe" redundant and not needed.

Your entry is correct. You could also enhance it by saying. Jina langu ni Beki. Je, jina lako ni nani? Nimefurahia kukutana na wewe or Nimefurahi kukukuta (to meet you) or kukujua (to know you). In Kiswahili, there are many ways of saying the same thing.
