My Vocabulary

Today, we took the big quiz. Here is the vocabulary I needed to know for the dialog. There's a lot. I didn't remember most of it, but I was able to use the important, big words. Hopefully I did well!

εdeεn [eh-dee-ehn] = what
nimdeε [neem-dee-eh] = knowledge
nnwom = music
nnwomtofo⊃ [nn-wohm-toe-foe-ah] = musicians
nnwomto⊃ [nn-wohm-toe-ah] = singing
twerε = to write

Homework 1

Maadwo!

We had homework over the weekend. We had to translate a few English phrases in the textbook, then pick 5 words from the short dictionary in the back of the book that we find important.

First, try to do the assignment yourself using the vocabulary from previous lessons.
1. Good morning, sir / ma'am.
2. Good afternoon, father / mother.
3. Good evening, ma'am / mother / aunt.
4. Please, call Amma for me.
5. I am going to call Amma.
6. Is your mother at home?
7. Is your father in?
