Your Xhosa:Tyhini thiza! Nkosi yam! – Oh Gosh! My Lord! Listen & learn:
January 28th, 2011 xhosafundis's posterous Posted in Daily Xhosa No Comments »
WORD PARTS:
Tyhini = expression of surprise,
thiza = similar to Gosh,
Nkosi = Lord (also ‘chief”),
yam = my.
I need this phrase today! How about you?!
The TYH sounds similar to the CH as in CHEESE, (and you’ll get away with this) but more correctly the movement of the tongue releases on the palate.
Enjoy the listen and repeat with Zoliswa.
Your Xhosa: Ube nemini emnandi! – You have a nice day! Listen & learn:
January 27th, 2011 xhosafundis's posterous Posted in Daily Xhosa No Comments »
WORD PARTS:
U = You,
be ne = lit. be with / ie. have,
mini = day,
emnandi = nice.
Enjoy this one! It is often shortened to ‘Be nemini emnandi’ (Have a nice day) or even ‘Mini emnandi’ (nice day)!
