Kelebogile

Setswana for "I am thankful", the perfect-tense form of leboga, to thank.

Meaning and origin

Kelebogile pairs the first-person prefix ke- with lebogile, the perfect-tense form of leboga, to thank, so it declares a lasting state of gratitude rather than the single act of thanking that Kealeboga names.
