@nihongosei I don’t think there is one standard word or phrase. But rather various words that could fit depending on the situation.
Eg. 大切 is usually translated as important but:
時間を大切に使ってください->use your time valuably, is how I’d translate this.
@probo8 @PastAndPresennt First, the government does not own the land. The municipal Council would like to demolish but it is not the legal owner.
Second, due to events of the civil war it became a refugee camp.
I suggest you simply read about its history before you air an opinion.
@probo8 @PastAndPresennt The hotel closed before independence(aka during Portuguese rule). It was deemed unprofitable, never made a profit any year of its operation. Moreover the swimming pool was whites only.
Today I called a school asking why they allow hair in a bun but not dreadlocks. I explained about combing everyday & holding up Locs. Well I suggested they discuss it in their next meeting.
I’m going to do this for a long time. Uganda the movement has stated, who wants to join?
Hair discrimination is disgusting. Funny that the educated are the ones that perpetuate it. From the boardroom to schools. But hey, kidandali culture has us by the balls. It shall pass one day. Natty is here to stay.
@StephenKabali@nbstv I guess it depends. Seeing as a maid will be closely involved in your household, being of the same tribe may just be pragmatism, due to similarity in lifestyle
Conversely, if it isn't objectively useful to the job, then yes.
@indoeuropa@editorsneedlov1@montes_narayana Who said learn everything about everything? Just as you don't learn all of physics or biology but an overview is pragmatic. And how do you quantify "not very much" it might be as much as everyone else already e.g I didn't learn American history
I tend to find democratization studies problematic—a method for imposing hegemonic categories that seldom take linguistic & historical change seriously. I hope we can end the ongoing obsession with ahistorical theories that privilege European & North American epistemologies.
This image, found on a hunt for something else, just stopped me in my tracks. The focus. The pride. The clarity. Wow. Charles S.L. Baker, inventer of that heater we see in so many homes, with an unidentified man, possibly his brother Peter. St. Joseph, Missouri, Feb. 12, 1906.
True, but that isn't to say is hasn't helped.
And perhaps it's a somewhat unfair comparison since Egypt has enjoyed publicity for 100s of years on account of being one of the cradles of civilisation
And Hollywood's obsession with mummies.
How will Rwanda fair in a few decades?
In other words, it takes much more than an appearance on a famous football star's shirt for the world to notice you.
Egypt remains, by a wide margin, Africa's leading tourism destination and place of global interest.
Opening and Closing Prayers need to release Ugandans.
You’ll be at a meeting of thieves planning a heist and they’ll still want to begin with an Opening Prayer.
