"How is your morning?"

Translation: Habari za asubuhi?

[Andy9703]

What is the difference between za and ya?

[Gita-ji]

'za' plural and 'ya' singular.
How much news do you want to share?

[JahvyJahmel]

When are they going to add speech so I can hear what the words sound like, and for them to be able to test me on how i pronounce the words?

[NessaNessaJoy]

After tue course is out of beta. Look at incubator.duolingo.com

[Tsipporah1]

How do I know this sentence is refering to 'your'?

[Carolyn217]

You don't. It's literally translated as 'news of the morning?' but since you ask this to someone then it implies you are asking about their morning.

Habari za asubuhi lako?

does this work?

[Arhelion]

Habari za asubuhi literally means "news of the morning" . So, to say "how are you", you'd need "your news" = habari zako. On the other hand, "your morning" = asubuhi yako". Nouns like habari and asubuhi (N-class) go with ya in the singular and za in plural. "La" goes with class-5 nouns, like jina, hence "jina lako".

So why is the answer "za?" Shouldn't it be "ya" if it's a singular "your?"

[Mazmaz13]

Tricky....za...
