Uma sihlaba
- Geza bese upholisa izindawo ezihlatshiwe.
- Uma umuntu ephefumula kanzima, ebuso noma emphinjeni kuvuvukala, noma ezizwa ezoquleka, lesi yisimo esiphuthumayo se-allergy: shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo.
Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala
Hlala uphephile
- Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
- Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
- Uma sikuhlaba: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.
Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile
Sikhulu kangakanani?
Side kangakanani?
side cishe njengesibophi sephephaDinosaur ant of Brazil mkhulu kangakanani uma uqhathanisa NAWE?
