Verb (-anza)

-anza (infinitive kwanza)

To begin

Usage notes

The phrasing -a kwanza usually means "first", literally "of the beginning".

From Wiktionary: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/anza

"Mom, I amMama ?" everybody report it please

I put "mother, I begin" and was told I was wrong and the correct answer was "mother, I ammother".

By my opinion the proper translation will be - mom, I begin ! Or - mom, I am beginning !

Dear Duolingo, how many times is necesarry to repeat that " to begin" is the same proper word if not better that " to start" ? Tafadhali !

But...They read more the comments that these reportings. Already they came back to old mistakes they had before ! By the way yo soy la mujer.

Same problem as Alex and Matthieu...
