Expressing lack of knowledge.
文化背景
In Tanzania, 'Sijui' is often accompanied by a slight head tilt or shrug to emphasize the lack of knowledge. In urban Nairobi, you might hear 'Sijui' used in Sheng (Swahili slang) mixed with English. The coastal culture is very polite; 'Sijui' is often followed by an offer to help. In Eastern Congo, Swahili is a major language, and 'Sijui' is used exactly as in East Africa.
