Unaweza kuwa na potpourri, ukaichanganya kui-hodgepodge, ukapata "hodgepodge of a potpourri" hakuna tautology wala repetition hapo.

Asha Dii je ni sawa syntactaically na semantically nikiseme Happy x mas and merry new year
Click to expand...


Happy x-mass and merry new year

Kwanza naomba niirekebishe kwa kusema iwe "Happy x-mas and a Merry new year"

Hio itakua - Syntactically correct ila Semantically wrong..... Au wee waonaje Mtazamaji?

There is nothing wrong whatsoever with "Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year"

In British English, "Happy Christmas" is a standard Christmas greeting. Merry can be equated to happy ( they are both adjectives) so instead of saying "Happy New Year" one can say "Merry New Year".

It may sound strange because it is not used conventionally. Like saying "Happy Morning" instead of "Good Morning".

Ashadii napenda ulivyo so democratic ila mimi hapo kwa umombo sijui naunga unga tu cha kupunguzia viizingiti huku mtaani.

But nadhani tukifuata protocol tukubaliane na wataalam tu Merry x mas na Happy new yia ndio sahihi na si kinyume chake

Syntax Sijui ndio sarufi maumbo na semantic labda ndio sarufi maana. au we sema tu sintaksi na semantiki Ngoja waje wataalam. ila wakinikosoa sana na wewe wakosoe.
 


In blue I do agree.... For the simple fact that it is syntactically valid as much as Semantically iffy - A syntactically valid statement no matter strange in one ear, is usually correct.

In red I do agree too... For you have just snatched up a part of Mtazamaji's phrase thus sounds OK and infact correct; Where as it is sytactically and semantically wrong when complete i.e "Happy x-mass and merry new year'" as opposed to "Happy x-mas and a Merry new year"
 



Leo nimeamini maneno yako yale ya jana aisee....lol.... Alafu Mtazamaji uache kutega wenzio.... Nawe eleza hapa bana. Take note ninavoeleza hapa ni nielewavo.... Hivo ni nafasi nzuri ya kukosolewa nikichemka hivo kuongeza knowledge na kui-sharpen brain na mind.
 
leo nimejifunza msamiati "hodgepodge and potpourri". kusema ukweli nilikuwa siyajui, imebidi niya-google

hodgepodge=a heterogeneous mixture na pia wengine wametoa definition hii "disorderly mass or collection of things"
potpourri= a mixture of dried, naturally fragrant plant material, used to provide a gentle natural scent in houses.
 

Hahahaahahh AshaDii mi naeleza bana si unaona mi nimekwambia changu cha kuunga unga. Kwangu nilikosea siku moja wa hayo maneno ya Merry na Happy basi wataalam niliokuwa nao wakanicheka.Na mimina nikaubali na nikaomba msamaha kuwa nimekosea lugha

Sasa naona strangly kwa mujibu wa eelewa wa kiranga There is nothing wrong whatsoever with "Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year" but dah merry new year

Anyway nitaenda niombe msamaha wangu back. Its hard kuwa na chango wa maana kwa sisi tulisoma Mr and Mrs Daudi Neema, Baraka and Musa. Tena darasani kuna kitbu kimoja tu.

Ukienda sekondary zile shule za wakulima. Mkali wa umombo the best u can perform ni kuibuka na C.
 
Du somo zuri sana, though vocab zenu naona ngumu sana kwa mimi mjasiliamali ambaye nahitaji kujua basic business language kumaliza deal zangu za mishiko.

Ingawa lazima nikiri kuwa hii thread ni moja kati ya thread ambazo ni entertaining sana kwa 2011. Nimeburudishwa sana Xmas hii kwa kusoma thread hii.

Abarikiwe aliyeanzisha Mtazamaji, Kiranga, NN, Ashadii, na yule jamaa aliyemchallenge Kiranga pamoja na wachangiaji wote. Long live JF!
