Fong Lesson

So at the village, during our lunch break, Calixte and Martin taught me some Fong (the local language). Prepare yourself, because I have no idea to spell these words, but I will spell them like they are pronounced for you all!

Ahfonkangia – Hello

Sobedo – Is everything good? Response = Dolso – Yes everything is good!

Nonni – My name is _____

Affo – Foot

Chaussuafokpa –Shoe

Cloacko – Chicken

Cloacklovi – Baby Chicken

Choockoo – Dog

Bo – Goat

Bovi – Baby Goat

Chichi – Sunglasses

Add ne to the end of anything to say like “that’s a ___”, or “this is ___” etc.
