| 9. Kufurahia na marafiki "to have fun with friends" |
| Kufurahia na marafiki ni jambo wakenya wanapenda. We like doing it. "Having fun with friends” I mean, “Having fun with friends is something Kenyans love." |
| We love. It’s how much we love hanging out, going to the beach, going partying you know. Just getting that closer bond with people you love. I don’t know about you but you know, when you come to Kenya, you’ll know that. You’ll realize that we love people and we will get you bonding with us. |
