Culture note
Kgwedi means both month and moon, because the months were once counted by the moon. When you set a time with someone, naming the part of the day (mo mosong, motshegare, maitseboa) is often clearer and more natural than naming an exact hour.
That is one module. 10 more follow in this guide, with 16 interactive exercises.
