"How is the morning father?"

Translation: Habari za asubuhi baba?

[nehrmann84]

What is the difference between "ya" and "za"? I thought they were interchangeable, but "Habari ya asubuhi baba" was incorrect.

[phb2013]

I think I read in previous comments in this lesson that "ya" is singular and "za" is plural.

[learnability]

Thats what i also read, and according to that it should be ya, unless you treat an elderly/respect person by the plural

If you think your answer is correct, help improve the course by using the report function. If you're unsure, still do so, just in case. :)

what is the difference between za and ya? it is confusing.

[DrJohnHouse]

"Za" is for both plural and for respect...so to an elder you would use "za".
