"Chipsi na nyanya tafadhali."

Translation: French fries and tomatoes please.

[Jannis]

on hovering above 'nyanya' it gives grandmother as possible translation next to tomato. Is that really so?

[sarah.snorbans]

yes, I learned 'nyanya' to mean both!

[BenConway6]

Chips and grandmother please!

[Munchkin1404]

So, can nyanya also refer to ketchup, or are you just asking for fries and a side of tomatoes?

[PeterGauli]

I was wondering about the same thing :)

[Immanuel-N]

I wonder if it would be 'tomato sauce' instead... Mchuzi ya nyanya or something

[Immanuel-N]

But locals probably just say "kechup" since its of foreign origin. Like chipsi and bia

[Becca236463]

Why is it plural for nyanya? I thought it just meant tomato as in singular.

[Babu-G]

nyanya is both singular and plural. Like ndizi and many other nouns

[BB8eZ2Cd]

the common name for chipsi in English is "chips" not French fries

[BenConway6]

Yes, it should accept chips as an option

[PeterGauli]
