"Hawa wa ni wazazi wangu"

Translation: These are my parents

[Kole-Wright]

Why the extra "wa"?

[ngwarai]

Must be a mistake. Shouldn't be there.

[esperanto1887]

thought so too.

[EileenRaff2]

I did wonder.

Or is it indicating the parents' possessions? "These are of my parents" or "These are my parents'", assuming that you're pointing at something?

[malaikapuffer]

A sentence like that would be something like "Hizi ni za wazazi wangu"

[ngwarai]

No. It does not mean parents' possessions but rather the parents themselves

[Renata725212]

I did some experiment and wrote - these are parents of mine. Did not work. =D
