Pots and Uses - Zinyingu nindi vuyinziri



Inyingu. Ni yo kodekera vindu kuri zinguza zia matu, maganda anoho kuviriza mazi

Enyengero. Yiyi ni yu kururiza marwa vandu vanwe. Vanwezaa noroseke. 

Ziviri. Yu kutanga ni inyingu, imwamu tititi yiyi. Na ya kaviri yiyi ni yu kurugira vuchima. Irangangwa inyanguruga. Henza eveye nu munwa munene

Kibanji. Chene yiki ni cho kotengeka mazi hango gu kunwa. Vasomberaa mu isiongo ivazuka mu kibanji. 

Ruhiga. Kaveye ni zimbega zie mikono. Munwa ni kuri gwi inyanguruga. Yiyi ni yi isuzi. 



Isika. Ne enene kuri ekedera chu m'mba. Inyara kuginga migorogoro sitini ju vuswage. 



Inyambeva. Ni inyingu yari yo kodeka zimbeva ma rwa vandu vareka ivatanga kodekeramu zingoko. Genyekanaa vagirange inyangoko nitari rieta inyambeva ku riahanda.
