Your Xhosa: Molo mhlobo, unjani? = Hello friend, how are you? Listen & learn:
February 7th, 2011 xhosafundis's posterous Posted in Daily Xhosa No Comments »
Your Xhosa: Ngumhlola! = it’s a miracle! Listen & learn:
February 3rd, 2011 xhosafundis's posterous Posted in Daily Xhosa No Comments »
WORD PARTS:
Ngu – similar to ‘it is’. (Ngu introduces nouns from certain Noun Groups, e.g. nouns with U- and Um- prefixes)
umhlola = a miracle.
When these 2 word parts join together, the 2 ‘U’s, in the middle, become one: NGUMHLOLA!
Listen to Zoliswa pronouncing it and, if possible, practise the pronounciation with a mother-tongue speaker. The HL sound is made by air vibrating outwards along the sides of the tongue.
Enjoy!
Your Xhosa: Ndilibele! = I forgot! Listen & learn:

Your Xhosa: Yiza! Masiye elwandle! – Come! Let’s go to the beach! Listen & learn:
February 1st, 2011 xhosafundis's posterous Posted in Daily Xhosa No Comments »
WORD PARTS:
Yiza = Come,
Ma = let
si = us,
ye = go, (YA becomes YE because of the MA- at the beginning – grammar construction),
elwandle = to the beach.
Hope it’s not too windy for the beach!
