You are spot on. Lelo means today as well as nowadays depending on the context. Eg. Abana ba Lelo to mean children of nowadays Tuleya Lelo to mean we shall travel today
@@chishalab.kmwansa6153 this is an amazing similarity, we would say it exactly the same way: babana ba lelo - kids of nowadays 😊. Thank you for the feedback.
I really enjoyed the video. Kameno kase😊. In Luhya Marachi lero has two meanings- today and nowadays. Mum- mama Mouth - Omunwa Teeth - Ameno Cat - ipusi Rain - ifula Old people - abakofu one (omukofu). Can also mean a husband. Omukofu wange ( my husband). Omushiere is an elderly woman and also means a wife. Omushiere wange (my wife) Grandfathers - abakuka (one, kuka) Dog - imbwa Soil - liloba Tongue - Lulimi Body - Omubiri
@@luhyalanguageandculture thank you very much for this breakdown. Wow sounds very similar but I know the pronunciation and accent would sound different.. Interesting to learn other luhya subtribes on this space 😊☺️
