"Imbeni polepole"

Translation: Sing slowly

[ElDoctr]

Isn't this correctly translated as addressing the second person plural? How are we meant to indicate that in English since "you" can be either?

[giraffe__]

the english translation necessarily loses information. it's not a problem that can be fixed so we just have to accept it.

[RinnyJ]

Are softly and gently valid answers here?

[RudolfJan]

Not in the suggestions, at least. laini means soft in Kiswahili

[EdwardThor2]

Sometimes Duolingo insists on "you all" and sometimes it rejects "you all." This level, on imperatives, is a mess.

[PeterGauli]

Pole means sorry right? And polepole is slowly? Strange.

[AhmedBossm]

Yes and -pole as an adjective means gentle.

I kept hearing this word before learning it on Duolingo. :)
