What does it mean word for word?

The phrase is composed of the verb sota meaning "to meet" and the adverb tale meaning "again".

Did you know?

  • While English speakers use 'see' to imply a visual encounter, sota describes the social event of coming together, making the phrase more about the relationship than the sight.
  • If you want to describe something happening repeatedly or incessantly, you can double the word for 'again' to create tale tale.
  • The word sota is also used in a very formal or official context, such as when a chief or a high-ranking official 'meets' with their people.

Examples in context

  • Sota tale.
    See you soon.
  • Sota tale ena veisiga.
    See you soon in a few days.
