{UAH} Gwokto, Explain Please!
Ladit Gwokto,
While we are still on the issue of names, I think there is no any other language that beat Luo in intonation and meanings, of words written exactly the same way but meaning something completely different, with just a slight intonation.
For example, 'cet' can mean 'shit' or 'go', depending on how you phonetise it.
'Gwokto' can mean 'be careful of death, 'keep death' or even 'a dog dies'.
Which one refers to you?
