I asked Sherinah to share with us about how to speak a little Luganda! There are 68 people groups in Uganda and although the national language is English, many people groups speak their own languages. Sherinah, in addition to speaking English and sign language, speaks Luganda!
Sherinah taught me a little and I want to share it with you!
Hello = oweyo
Good morning = wasuze otya
My name is = amanya gange nze
How are you = oli otya
Thank you = webalenyo
Goodbye = welaba
Webalenyo for learning a little Luganda with me! Now go try our your Lugandan with your family!
If you would like to learn more about the different people groups in Uganda and how to pray for them, the Joshua Project has a great resource, which you can check out here.
Welaba! Until next week!
