哈库呐玛塔塔（讲解版）| E1205

▍原文

In recent days angry opinion pieces have sprung up in Kenyan media over the well-known Swahili phrase "Hakuna Matata”.

The phrase translated means "no problems" or "no worries" and is a common expression throughout east Africa.

But to the rest of the world, it's best known as a song from the Lion King - and Walt Disney registered a trademark for the phrase for their merchandise.

Some Kenyan newspapers have accused the company of stealing from Kenyan culture by claiming ownership of the phrase.
