age
French: l'époque / la saison
Na eleko wana, nazalaki elenge.
In that era, I was young.
À cette époque, j'étais jeune.
Era — a stretch of time with its own weather and mood. Eleko is a period, season, or era. "Eleko ya mbula," the rainy season; "na eleko wana," in those days — it frames both the year's weather and a life's chapters.
