In reply to Emmanuel musenge.

Hi Emmanuel. In this example, “oil” is being used to describe an action, state, or occurrence(i.e. as a verb) – as in “I will oil my skin.”
When used as a noun, “amafuta” would be correct – as in “I’ve got a new oil.”

I would like to comment on the word oil. Oil does not mean suba no. Oil means amafuta

I can’t see what is posted. It’s as if someone removed the lesson… It’s just a huge blank space with comments at the bottom. Please upload what you posted back up. The lessons r very helpful. Thank you.

In reply to Peter.

Ba Peter,

I think this is an example of words that can mean different things. Roasting peanuts, roasting meat over an open fire, frying chicken in cooking oil, burning grass, etc. will all be covered by these words.
Which ones would you use?

ROAST IS NOT SALULA. IT’S KANGA OR OCHA.
