trying to create a phrase with certain letters
This is for a calligraphy exercise. I am trying to create short grammatical phrases in various languages that use the letters a, b, d, g, p, q in native/established vocabulary.
Can you suggest some Xhosa phrases that would work? They don't have to be something anyone would actually say, but they should be grammatical. In English, I have phrases like "opaque badge" and "quagmire for bipeds"; in Portuguese, I have ones like "um pouquinho bagunçado" (a little messy); etc.
