"Kaka zake ni walimu"

Translation: His brothers are teachers

[KiKi423168]

Zake and walimu indicates the plural. For singular it would have been yake and mwalimu

[Shantipazamani]

Why is it "brothers" rather than "brother"? What makes it plural?

[RobertEddy]

It's the zake instead of yake.

[DennisKaku]

I thought brother = ndugu. Is ndugu same as kaka?

[BenConway6]

So is kaka one of the 'people' nouns that doesn't go in the m/wa class? Is 'kaka wake' not correct?

[ElMeuNom]

All close family members are N class. Kaka wake is not correct. Adjectives agree as if they were M/WA, but possessives use y/z to show plurality.

[maat_heru]

Hers are too
