Indicating ‘left’ and ‘right’ – Learn the Lingala Language
Indicating ‘left’ and ‘right’ uses an interesting combination of common words. Loboko, used for both, means ‘hand’. Mobali means ‘man’. And mwasi means ‘woman’. So ‘on the right’ – na loboko ya mobali – literally means ‘on the hand of the man’, and ‘on the left’ – na loboko ya mwasi – translates to ‘on the hand of the woman’.
