Day and night
Sesotho marks the parts of the day clearly: hoseng (morning), motšeare (midday), mantsiboea (evening) and bosiu (night). For full clock times people often add the hour number, e.g. hora ea borobeli (eight o'clock). A tutor will help you say times the way your own community does.
That is one module. 10 more follow in this guide, with 16 interactive exercises.

Description

Step beyond the basics into everyday Sesotho: your daily routine, plans and invitations, the weather, health, getting around town, and chatting about what you did yesterday and will do tomorrow.

  • A sounds and pronunciation section
  • 2 dialogues to read aloud, line by line with meanings
  • 8 grammar and usage notes with examples and tips
  • Practice exercises (matching, fill in the missing word, translation and a self-check) with a full answer key
