Pula dosłownie oznacza "deszcz" w języku Tswana, ponieważ deszcz jest bardzo rzadki w Botswanie (większość powierzchni pustyni Kalahari znajduje się tutaj), a zatem cenny i błogosławiony. Słowo to jest również mottem narodowym kraju.

Słowo "Ipelegeng" dosłownie oznacza "nosić własny ciężar" lub "być samowystarczalnym lub niezależnym", ogólnie ma różne znaczenia w języku Tswana. Ipelegeng to także południowoafrykańskie miasto i botswański program stworzony w celu zmniejszenia ubóstwa w kraju.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Pula literally means "rain" in Tswana language, because rain is very scarce in Botswana (most of the surface of Kalahari Desert is situated here) and therefore valuable and a blessing. The word also is the national motto of the country.

The word "Ipelegeng" literally means "to carry your own weight" or "to be self sufficient or independent", in general has got different meanings in Tswana language. Ipelegeng is also a South African city and a Botswana program created for reducing the poverty in the country.
