Okay, so... [laughter] I'm gonna use the two native languages from my parents. In Lingala, if you are Congolese, the first thing you ever learn to say is, "Na ko beta yo!" [laughter] It is, "Na ko beta yo!" It's the first thing, like, I would go around when I was a kid, saying, "Na ko beta yo!" Just like that. And like, I knew that if my dad said, "na ko beta yo," I knew what was coming.
Should I -- Do I have to explain, like, what it means, or...? Okay, "na ko beta yo" means, like, "I'm going to slap you." So that's in Lingala, and I don't know how to say it in Bemba, just because... I don't know, I've never heard it in Bemba. Yes. Also, a disclaimer, my parents love me! [laughter] It's just... It's African discipline. I'm fine! But "na ko beta yo" is something that I'm able to say in Lingala and I just don't know how to say it in Bemba, so yeah.
