@burning spear

your mention of mubage has reminded me that the fruits of this plant were a good source of glue especially for art classes. i wonder whether anyone has made commercial use of this plant.

'Ati kuhutithania?' hehehehehehehehe haki nyinyi mulikuwa mathare day scholars.then ati 'niwaigua mureo?' tss crazy crazy were you arguing,'ni shama kana ni murio?' guka hebu give us this difference?

I remember there was a dude called Maiko,in our school who I think wasn't just lucky,

The dude kwanza was kind of not so okay mentally,and had repeated classes so many times and was the oldest and dumbest. so tukamfikia..

Scene 1
During one agriculture class,we were being taught on how to kill pest from a cow,so for a demo Maiko was the one to be the cow,and a certain girl (cant recall her name) was the farmer,and the blackboard duster was to be the pesticide,so the the girl smeared the chalkdust on the cow's jegeke(armpits),btween the legs,shingo poor maiko.

Scene 2
One friday (the day we raised the flag),the rope broke and it had to be put back at the pulley at the top of the pole,so our superman was the one to do it,he climbed the pole he would step on that ka-thingy that we tied the rope in at the bottom of the pole it was a K shaped iron. then do the climbing by embrasing the pole going up, after doing his thing he started to haruruka (sliding down) back,i think he had forgotten about that ka thing so he slid down on top of it akaikalia,how his ball were not,reaped off apart. still amazes me. hehehehe all I remember was seeing a red thing pop out out from his shorts kumbe ilikuwa ngotha ya red,'ihii ni cia gai'

The girls used to tell Maiko to show them his kanyamu. Usichoke kutafuta salary

@Njung'e

you are right it should be double 'a'.

but 'murio' can also mean sweet.

@ Wendz

am also looking forward to memories and stories from the west - i have heard some good ones from friends from that end.

Thanks guka,Haiyaa these days they do taste tuthugumiri.. hehehehe... maaganitee!!
aree with mpenzi shama can mean sweet.

but I think whoever who comes up with kikuyu words is either a muguruki or he does it while drunk. there are too many words that are confused,eg Thegio could mean thankyou or be moved,which could also be used to mean died,look at 'kuagana',missing or naughty.... bure kabisa is there a kikuyu dictionary?
