1 Urdu couplets and shers with seti

seti(f): with (poetic form of saath)

Description of seti: SETI is a Swahili word meaning "tell me" or "inform me," commonly used in casual East African conversations to prompt sharing of information or gossip. Unlike formal inquiries like "habari gani," which seek general news, it demands direct, immediate disclosure. Differs from "nambie," a more imperative "tell me," by carrying a playful, insistent tone. In Kenyan poetry and song lyrics, such as Bahati's hit track, it evokes curiosity and narrative
