      Default Why do people say these:

      I always wonder why do people say 'ATM machine' while ATM is a short term for 'Automated Teller Machine' so then why add machine again at the end of the word ATM while 'M' stands for machine?
      Also why do people say PIN number while PIN is a short term for 'Personal Identification Number' why add number again while the 'N' in PIN stands for 'Number'

      ukienda kwenye AYM kwenyewe utakuta pameandikwa "ATM" so kama mtu anakuelekeza lazima atakuambi pale kwenye ATM kwani it appears kwamba ATM ndio jina la zile mashine. so sioni wanapokosea kusema ATM mashine as long as mashine zenyewe zimebandika jina la ATM.

      the same applies kwenye PIN code kwa saabu jina lake ni PIN na ni namba kwa hiyo kuitofautisha na namab zingine kwa jina lake ndio inatumika kifungu nomino "PIN namba"

      Haya Murefu umeyataka mwenyewe, umetukaribisha wahaya: Umeanza na Wahaya (wingi), anajidai (umoja). ana2halibia (sijui kitenzi ulichokitumia kinatokana na shina lipi, mi najua "HARIBU", kwa hiyo ungeandika wanatuharibia.
      Naishia hapo tu dada/kaka kukuonesha hata wewe una matatizo yako. Sijui umewahi kuisikia ile methali isemayo "Nyani haoni kundule!"; au lile andiko lisemalo "Toa kwanza boriti kwenye jicho lako, ndipo utaona kibanzi kwenye jicho la mwenzako."
      Kiswahili hujui, kuandika hujui ... tatizo wahaya.
