Muzungu = white person
The ‘jam’ = traffic
Airtime = pay-as-you-go mobile credit
Stage = bus stop
Mangu mangu! = faster!
Boda Boda = motorcycle taxi
My favourite luganda phrase at the moment is ‘mpola mpola’ (slowly, slowly) which I say to all the boda boda drivers before getting on… my motorcycle helmet is also coming in handy as a rather fetching handbag!
