    Nyumba,it is good to help others learn the language.However,be careful you might be starting a war somewhere when you saidia.It could be a wife married to a Kiuk and maybe overheard stuff or vise-versa and since they can not speak the language want to know what was said about them.
    Teach but be wise.

    There is no direct traslation since the english people do not have "Ngemi" as we do in our culture. Probably "joyful ululation" comes closest.
