Wa is plural, m is singular. Sisi ni wakenya Mimi ni mkenya

    Thanks for clarifying

    Thanks. I was really getting confused as there was no explanation and my old brain was not discovering the pattern.

    When you hover above the word you, you get options: nyinyi and ninyi. When you use the first option, the system tells you that you have a typo? Why?

    I have the same question. Is there any difference between ninyi or nyinyi?

    I typed Nyinyi instead of Ninyi and it was wrong. What is the difference?


    https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Victoria272446

    I don't understand the difference between using Wa- and M- for some countries (ex. Mtanzania and Watanzania).

    Wa is for plural like Kenyans = wakenya and M for singular Mkenya= Kenyan


    https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Joshua_Leach

    I think it is for plural nouns. We, you all... uses Wa.


    https://www.duolingo.com/profile/momo12o

    I agree and M is for singular.

    shouldn't wewe and ninyi be same


    [deactivated user]

      wewe : singular ninyi : plural


      https://www.duolingo.com/profile/BenMack8

      There is no context to say this is plural so my answer of "wewe ni mchina," should stand. 26032020

        What's the difference between watanzania and mtanzania


        https://www.duolingo.com/profile/KitumainiD

        Sisi sio Tanzania


        https://www.duolingo.com/profile/JewelGause

        why is there no sound so i can know the pronunciation


        https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Maricarmen573049

        Creo que esta equivocada la respuesta. Tanzanians es plural y deberia ser con la 2a del plural " vosotros" osea wewe ¿ no?


        https://www.duolingo.com/profile/M1G2B3learner

        How would we know the difference without context...

        Is you here sing or pl?


        https://www.duolingo.com/profile/BenMack8

        Plural as you're asking Tanzanians. 20210810
