"We are ok today"

Translation: Leo hatujambo

[Jeff.Netto]

Couldn't we say the same with "Sisi ni poa leo."

[RosaliaV1]

I have the same question

[pauli_tics]

Sisi hatujambo leo?

[RosaliaV1]

It seems that the "sisi" is not needed because the "hatujambo" implies it

Tuko salama leo did not register, I am not sure if this is grammatically incorrect, please confirm

My girlfriend is saying that is correct. She is a teacher.

I thought "hatu" was a negative prefix? Bit confused by its presence in a word conveying a positive statement rather than a negative one. Or is the Swahili literally saying something more like "We are not bad"?

[RosaliaV1]

If I stand correct, hatujambo literally means "we have NO problems" which duolingo translates to "we are okay". That is why the negative prefix is used.

[RowanM.1]

Ah, I see! Many thanks for that!

Can you also say sisi hatujambo leo?
