[KakaKiiza]

Kwa uelewa wangu mdogo....Close ni mtaa usiotoka au unazunguka unarudia ulipoingilia...Avenue ni barabara ndefu yenye mitaa inayoingi mingi...Drive ni mtaa mmoja unaotakiwa na uelekeo mmoja na mrefu na usio ruhusu marori...crescent ni mchepuko tumbo unarudi barabara kuu...street ni mitaa mifupi mifupi..way ni barabara kuu inayopitisha magari mkubwa ya mizigo na isiyo na vituo..road ni barabara ndogo lakini kubwa..Mimi ndivyo ninavyofikiri na kujua katika imani yangu.
