A raya go bua, go tlotla le go tsaya dikgang jaaka gape Setswana se bua. E ntse e le sekai a re re, ke yoo a goroga kwa ga Tsotsojane. Go bona tsala, Tsotsojane a itumela thata mme a tla ka dijo ba nna fatshe ba a ja. Fa ba sena go ja, ba bua ka sele le sele. Dingwe tsa dilo tseo e le ditiro tse ba neng ba di rongwa ba sale bana le metshameko e ba neng ba e tshameka jaaka koi, diketo kana go keta, Mmampudulele, le e mengwe metshameko ya nako eo. E tlaa re Pupudu le Tsotsojane ba ntse ba bua jalo ka sele le sele, Motswana a re ba ja dikgang. Go nne jalo, di jewe dikgang go nne monate thata mme tsone di sa tsene ka legano jaaka dijo, di tswa ka legano. A nne a fetele pele Motswana mme gape a re go na le go ja bobe. Gone e le eng?

Go sale foo, e re Motswana gape a bua ka motho wa go nna jalo, a re yoo, o batla go tlhola a lepalepanye le dijo, le go ja. Go buiwe jaana ka motho yoo a sa batle go nna a sa je. Godimo ga go ja bobe Motswana a re go na le go ja mosusumpelo. Gone fa, o bo o ka botsa gore pharologanyo fa gare ga go ja bobe le go ja mosusumpelo e bo e le eng? Pharologanyo e nne gore, jaaka re setse re kaile,, motho yo o jang bobe ga a je dijo tse dintsi a di fetse fela gone foo. Ene o batla gore gangwe le gape a bo a ntse a latlhela latlhela sengwenyana mo ganong, a itshidila ditlhaa, e seng go nna fela a momile molomo. Mme yo o jang mosusumpelo ene o ja dijo tse dintsi gone fela foo a fetse. Yo, ga se yo e reng o mo fa o re o a mo tlopolela kana o a mo ngathela. Ene o batla gore o mo tsholele go bonale. O ja mo a ka jang mogopo wa batho ba le babedi, bararo, a o fetsa mme e re a tswa foo, a bo a kgotshe thata. A jele, a kgotshe mo go ntseng jalo, ke gone Motswana a tlaa reng motho ga a a ja o susumpetse; o jele mosusumpelo. Ka mpa e ngamogile, e gompetse, ke gone bangwe ba tle ka leina ba re motho ke Segompo. A nne a tswelele a natefise puo Motswana mme a re go na le go ja mosekelampeng. Re itse gore, malatsi ano, re dira ditiro tse dintsi ka madi re a adimile. E re o a dirisitse e nne gone fa o a jele. Gape, ka o a adimile o tlamege go a busa, go a duela. Kgang e tswe gone fa. O jele jaanong duela, sekela se o se jeleng se se mo mpeng ya gago. Motlha mongwe go nne thata go bo go tsoge kgang ya gore motho ga a kgone go duela madi ale mme e nne one mosekelampeng tota. Go nne go fetele pele mme Motswana a re go na le go ja motho nko e sa butswa a raya go gakalela motho thata. E tlaa re Kitimetso a gakaletse Tshikarelo e bile a batla go mo tsaya ka tse di jang, Motswana a re Kitimetso o batlile go ja Tshikarelo nko e sa butswa. Ke tseo di jewe se natefe Setswana.
