It's finally becoming hot here, although it hasn't reached forty (centigrade) yet, which means it's a pretty mild summer tbh.

Spoiler:

A cool derivation here - "sun" is dnangkwala, which is in class III because it's grouped with fire, while "moon" dlhingkwala is in class II because it's considered an animal (or closely tied to animals), and "star" is ghangkwala in class IV, as stars are associated with dead people. Also, "forty" is the oblique dual form of "person", i.e. forty digits, with the last syllable dropped to allow for nominal prefixes.
