Setswana: Tumo le Thabang

12 May 2007,

Dear Mama le Papa,
Mama! I speak Setswana at work! 
Remember KB and Jerry left? Well it was only for about a month that I was the only black here, Tumo came! Straight from Gaborone! Immediately after Thabang followed! Thabang’s mom comes from Kanye. They love hiphop too! Thabang has a lot of hiphop from Botswana. He introduced me to HT Tautona, I love the album. Tumo has been to America, I so want to see New York now!
Today we are in Glasgow. I like it more here! And Its warmer here, its a beautiful day! I feel alive to be speaking Setswana, I feel alive!
Tumo le Thabang ba re lo dumele! Ke tlaa founa kgantele,
Nkgosi
