margin
kiasi 17-20

there are some men who worship god only from the margin.
na katika watu wapo wanao muabudu mwenyezi mungu kwa ukingoni.

i must confess i did not expect the margin of victory that appears to be emerging from the election results as currently being announced.
lazima nikiri kuwa sikutegemea ushindi unaoanza kudhihirika kutokana na matokeo ya upigaji kura ambayo yanatangazwa hivi sasa.

having said that, it is unclear how the election will play out, and channel news asia has reported that the ruling barisan nasional (bn) coalition might still win, but with a smaller margin.
kwa kusema hayo, haijawa wazi bado jinsi uchaguzi utakavyo kuwa, na kituo cha habari cha asia kimetangaza kwamba muungano wa chama tawala barisan nasional (bn) bado una nafasi kubwa ya kushinda, lakini kwa tofauti ndogo ya kura.
