Re: [wanabidii] English Grammar

Xavery (Gzaveri),

Of course that reply is not technically right but if it's something people have accepted in a region/language, then it's fine. It's the same as when I hear people greet others Jambo and the reply is also Jambo. Or as we say in Kenya's Digo South Coast: One says;  "Kalamkaze?"  and the reply is "Kalamuka". 

By replying in the same words back, you're implying that all is well with you and you're now only concerned about the welfare of the asker/greeter.

Courage

Very true Mgonge. Envelope ni bahasha. Envelop is a verb describing the action of covering, surrounding, fencing etc.

The first difference is noted on their pronunciation ( ENVELOP- invelopu whereas ENVELOPE- envelopu if we are to use kiswahili as a reference). The second difference is on their meaning - ENVELOP  is to cover or surround a thing or a place completely (adverb) whereas ENVELOPE is the rectangular paper cover (noun)
