Hello, I'm doing a South African play and I have to speak a few phrases in Tswana. So far I haven't even found out what they mean, could anyone help me?

"r" rolling cool

Setswana sounds wonderful to me, especially the letters r (trilled /r/), g (/x/), tl (/tɬ/) and the drawled vowels.
Dumela, thank you for sharing a bit of your very beautiful language!
Ke a leboga fela thata!

You are very correct, but one last correction, it translate to " Ke dingwaga dile lesome le bosupa". Borobaboraro is rarely used I think.. cheers
-
@sgleteane You are all correct! I guess it just shows that there are various ways of saying the same thing in Setswana! So no one is technically wrong here!
-
@ASPRINALARD correction, its "ke dingwaga di le lesome le bosupa", 17 ke lesome le bosupa..

pretty language

I'm afraid to say that "boroba/bofera-boraro" doesnt exist in official Setswana. It only applies for eight and nine.. which are borobabobedi and borobabongwe respectively!
For seven it logically correct but if we say/write it what are we gonna say for six???
Borobabone? NO!!! |SEVEN= bosupa period!!
Good job but one correction! 'I'm 17 years old' translates to 'Ke di ngwaga di le lesome le borobaboraro'! What is written on the board there translates to 'I'm 80 years old'!
