Dumela Day

The Setswana greeting is not hello, it is a full negotiation. "Dumela rra, o kae?" "Ke teng mma, wena o kae?" "Ke teng." You cannot walk past anyone without completing this exchange, and the older the person, the longer it goes. Skip a step and the whole village will hear about it before lunch.
