Who are you?

Today, we learned how to talk about where we're from and who we are.

For example:
Yε woo me [Yeh woo mi] Redondo Beach. = I was born in Redondo Beach.
Mefiri [Meefeeree] California. = I'm from California.
Meyε Californiani. [Miyeh California-nee] = I'm a Californian.
Mete [Meetee] New York. = I live in New York. (Depending on the context, "te" is either "sense" or "currently live".)
Mefiri aburokyire. [Meefeeree ah-booroh-cheereh] = I'm from overseas.

Prefixes: Pronouns and 2 Tenses

After we finished going through our personal vocabulary, we moved on to some prefixes- pronouns and verb tenses.

There are 7 basic pronouns:
me
wo
⊃no
εno
yεn
mo
w⊃n (also can use w⊃⊃nom or ⊃⊃mo but we weren't told when to use them)
