I FEEL COMPELLED TO SHARE A STORYTIME FROM MY TRAVELS TO TANZANIA THIS SUMMER

So I went to Tanzania for a summer program. I ended up learning a bit of conversational Swahili, but English is my mother tongue. Now, mind you, I know Japanese as well. Nowhere enough to be fluent, but enough to know general words.

(could I converse with the Japanese kids on program? Hell no. Did they think me trying to speak Japanese in my funny little American accent was adorable and they wanted to treasure me? Yes. Unfortunately.)

But by the end of about two weeks, I was able to impress the new batch of people (I stayed the whole month while all but three other people stayed the rest of the time with me) with my newfound speaking skills, and so they thought I knew what the fuck I was talking about.

and Boy, Oh Boy, did I get ahead of myself.

Now, a little lesson for you; Jambo is slang for ‘hey-o’ for tourists. Market-goers will call it out to you expecting you to repeat it back. Now, the FUNNIEST thing was replying back in full-ass Swahili like we were taught and watching these people lose their MINDS.

“Aye-o, Jambo!”

“Sijambo, na wewe?”

Now, THIS— this roughly translates to,

“Aye-o, hey! Tourist!”

“Hello! How are you?”

BAHAHAHAHAHAAHA—

oh, watching older African men lose their SHIT to a little 5’0 scrunkly-ass American boy spit THIS back out at them was COMEDY GOLD.

Another time was me acting like me and the kitchen staff could hold a conversation:

“Ah, bui-bui! Habari za asubuhi?”

“Nzuri sana! Na wewe?”

“Nzuri, nzuri.”

Which roughly translates to,

“Ah, spider!* how’s the morning?”

“Very good! How about yourself?”

“Well, well.”

*bui-bui is ‘spider’ in Swahili, which was the nickname for our driver, Lukumay.

BUT OHHHHHH MANNNN, was it so much fun. God, do I miss it there.
