Talk:Wt/tum/Malawi

English section

@Tumbuka Arch: inde abwana, moyo uli bwanji? Note that in the English section the contents (like "Noun", "Meaning" etc. are supposed to be in Tumbuka. In Tumbuka Wiktionary you explain English (Polish, French, Turkish etc.) words for Tumbuka speakers in the Tumbuka language.

Btw, could you please provide a list of grammatical terms in Tumbuka? Like "noun", "adjective", "verb" "adverb", "numeral", "participle"...; "number" (singular/plural), "grammatical gender" (masculine, feminine, neuter), "case" (nominative, genitive, dative...) "noun class" (e.g. chinthu/zinthu, munthu/anthu, buku/mabuku). Maybe I'll need other terms, I'll try to contribute here adding Polish words.

Is there a Forum / Community portal page in the Tumbuka Wiktionary? If not, please also translate Community Portal into Tumbuka and I will try to create the page.

Another thing, ChiTumbuka and Chichewa are too similar, you could create an article in Chichewa and I could come and translate it into Tumbuka (as long as you tag them in one place (in temporary Category)) so that I don't miss any during translating.

Can you please create the forum. It is Community Portal = Vidumbizgano vya Chikaya

Thanks alot.
