Our hello song was about children from all around the world, right?
The first language I wanna teach you is Swahili.
And in Swahili, which is a language in Africa, when you say hello, you say, "Jambo!"
Can everybody say jambo?
Jambo!
Or "Jambo sana" means you're just greeting everyone in the room.
Jambo sana!
And "Hola," I think we all might know "hola," which is "hello" in Spanish.
Hola, amigos!
"Hola, amigos" would mean "Hello, friends."
Can everybody say, "Hola, amigos"?
And of course, in English, we have "Hello."
Hello, everyone!
Now, can everybody echo me and say, ♪ Jambo ♪ Jambo sana ♪ Jambo Jambo sana, jambo.
♪ Hola ♪ Hola, amigos ♪ Hola Hola, amigos, hola.
♪ Hello ♪ Hello, everybody ♪ Hello llWe're gonna talk a lot about where we're from today and what our ethnicity is.
Big word, right?
So, where we're from means where we live.
So on the count of three, I would like for all of us to say where we live.
One, two, three.
New York City!
Oh my gosh, wow!
We live all over the place.
And I wanna know what your ethnicity is.
If you don't know what ethnicity... Big word.
Everybody echo me and say "ethnicity."
Excellent.
That just means...
It's not always the same as where you're born.
My ethnicity is Jamaica, meaning my family comes from the island, Jamaica.
But I was born in America, in New York City.
So, I wanna hear what your ethnicity is, whether you're from America or Puerto Rico or Italy.
Let's hear it.
Wow.
