@@CongoTalks243 I am from the DRC and used to speak lingala, but then I got adopted from a young age and forgot how to speak it😥. I am trying to learn how to speak it again, so these videos really help. Thank you so much!!

Mokolo malamu, nazali na motuna. I am unclear on the endings of words in Lingala. Not the tenses: i, ki, ka. The confusion is around these: esa, isa, asa, eli, ana, ela, and others I’ve noticed as I learn more vocabulary. Please make a video, or allow me to verbally explain if you are unclear about the request.
Street words, like tokooos, very helpful. I'm Zim 🇿🇼, we first heard Lingala thru rhumba music, sampling rhumba pieces like you did with Yo pe by Innoss B, makes the lessons very interesting. Actually I'm learning Lingala to understand rhumba music. I must say I have made huge strides. Melesi mingi
I'm an ESOL teacher in the USA. Most of my students are from Congo Kinshasa or Angola. Yesterday, one of my students was like "Teacher, you speak Lingala!" based on the fact that I sometimes say "yo!" as a greeting and because i know what fufu is. (Because its ny job to know! XD) So here I am, brushing up on my Lingala! I don't want to let them down! 😭 thank you for your lovely videos!
I have been looking for a congolese platform where they will speak English. I have been learning Lingala for years now but i have not really been able to do much. I believe i will improve now. Thank you sis.
I have wanted to learn this language ever since Jeremy Wade mentioned it in an episode of River Monsters. I would also love to visit Congo some day. So thank you. Greetings from Finland.
Ive been trying to find online lessons for Lingala and watching your videos has made me full in love with the language even more! It's a very beautiful language x
5:13 the way I chuckled when I heard this one. No need for translation, my mom used to tell me that a lot as a kid. The only sentence I never forgot growing up.
My parents are from Zaire I was born in Zambia I now live in the states...all this to say my tshiluba swahili and lingala is horrible...I can't put together a sentence. It's sad. Watching your videos makes me so emotional... I'm in tears. I want to learn these 3 languages fluently. Keep posting i will subscribe. I don't really socialize so your videos are the only I can get my culture back
OMG forgot how to say in lingala😂 But my first time watching!! happy to say, Yessss!. You are a really good teacher. Very clear and respecting of us students. I got interested because I follow the half dutch/half congolese dance group Let It Happen, norah yarah and rosa, whose dad is from the Conga and they live in Maastricht Netherlands. THEY HAVE BLOWN UP. Dad and mom are the managers, agents, etc., they've been twice on the Ellen Show here in Hollywood CA. Now that I found you I am going to check in more often!!! I will also leave a message for their dad Albert Mukanga about you!! THANK YOU AGAIN AND STAY SAFE🥰Arthur
Thank you so much! I'm about to start a job with a lot of English language learners and I want to do what I can to learn some of their languages as well!
I sure like girl. You made my evening. I have been trying to learn this beautiful language, and you make it sound so easy and doable. And Oh My Nzambe! You gave me a good laugh.
Ciccy Kabanga It is very easy and doable! I’m glad you learnt something from it! Check out a short guide here 👉🏾ruclips.net/video/EbfupmjxWgk/видео.html
I would of love to of learn the all of Congolese , and I understand wat your saying we as new comers to the Congo It would of being nice to of us to have learned Your Lingala it would of made as closer . Ozo / Ozoli kitoko as mine Sister
Felicity thanks for your videos this great. From uganda but would love to learn lingala . How do i go about learning lingala through conversation? Amy suggestions? I dont have congolese friends unfortunately
Hi! It’s a pleasure! Thank you for watching. There is a RUclips channel that teaches Lingala conversations. Try checking it. Here’s the link👉🏾ruclips.net/channel/UC69TmU116UuoR3TJZYwjm-w
HI Felicity! I really enjoyed the video and your teaching style! New subbie from California! Sis can you make a video teaching us Worship phrases to The Most High NZAMBE?
Hi! Sango nini means what’s up or what’s new? Boni means How but you can only use it as greeting to friends, not to older people. If you want to say how are you you can say Boni yo? (Singular for friends) Or Boni bino? (Plural for older people).
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed. There is not much difference between the two Congo’s to be honest. They used to be one Kingdom before colonialism. One was colonised by the French and the other by the Belgians, but we still speak the same languages 😅🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Just discovered your channel as I want to learn Congolese. So thank you . How do you say ‘King’ and could you break it down like how you did in your video ❤️
My mom loves that song I'm Congolese so I speak lingala a little bit so if you do something bad to will get hit it's painful you get sliper a wooden spoon and a pillow
@@CongoTalks243 it's now obvious that the so called lingala teacher is not good at all in lingala . Lobanzo is a simple word that everyone should know . Lobanzo is the singular form of mabanzo. From the verb KOBANZA = to think. Lobanzo = thought . Mabanzo =ThoughtS

Hello. Do you provide private lessons online? My BF is Congolese and I am having a hard time finding someone to teach me. I’m very interested in learning.
You are a good teacher What do the following mean; ikeleve, igoti ya Nzambe, silikani, boma liwanza, mopatas, madiabwana, moselebende lisapo onge, mavata, mpeve ya longo, bawuba
Do you have a video of lingala teaching how to count and say the alphabets ? Also how do you say Good morning , Good afternoon and good evening , more Lingala greetings 🤔 Thank you
Could you do one for medical? My office has a lot of Congolese patients and I'm struggling to communicate with them. It makes me sad! I want them to have the best healthcare.
@W. Redburn Lingala is usually spoken with French words inside. It's not really code switching as there's a specific way to speak it, however it's hard to teach it that way because you just have to grow up with it. But when people teach Lingala they're teaching the actual, pure language you see here (as it should be, really).
@W. Redburn That's nice! I never used/heard "sango nini" growing up, it was always "boni/boni bino" "oza bien/oza malamu?" etc. It's good that you're learning the pure way. It's always best to learn a language with the people around you 😊
It's beneficial for me ..but could you share us that when we use La , Ma , sa , Na in end of words because it is very hard for me.. please if you are comfortable so make a video on this point.
