@yanavida ok, first lesson, when pronouncing most of indigenous SA languages, and most other African languages always remember the following: The vowels are pronounced as follows: A = ah! E = eh! I = E O = oh U = ooh!
To pronounce clicks; C - press the front tip of your tongue X - sound it at the back side of your tongue, left side is easier Q- hit the top/ ceiling of your mountain with your tongue K- force out the k with the tongue hitting the top of your mouth
Still on clicks: Ch- sound the c lighter, like you're breathing while saying it Xh- sound the x lighter, also like you are breathing Qh- same others, sound q lighter Kh- sound like English K Ph- sounds like English P P- press your lips and force the air out G- sounds like g for go Bh- sounds like English B B- sound very light, like you are opening your mouth while saying B D- is the same as D
Hahaha my gosh. As a native South African living in Johannesburg, I cringed through most of this. I think your particular experience was very singular. lol at the codes (mostly in estates - not true of every single listing on Airbnb) and the adapters 😂 you know we also do have 2 point plugs and sockets right?
If you see this comment yall, please don't go around greeting everyone in zulu especially if you're going to Cape Town side because there are quite alot of languages and everyone there does understand english so... you can just imagine if you talk to a local with the wrong African language... 😅
If you in Gauteng province the Sesotho language is also common
They are run by the Zulu😊😊 who told you so, Gauteng is big not only Zulu owned taxis ,
Today is Saturday there is no loadshing👍👍
Is it not a known stereotype that taxis are synonymous with Zulus?
Is it a cool thing to be associated with taxis now?
Thank you. I plan on going early next year as a solo senior and I got a lot of good advice from this
So happy this helped! I find ppl to be quite friendly there so wishing you a great trip!!
Come back already coz SA is the place for you. Stay safe and sweet as you are❤❤
Thanks for the Load Shedding Info

Where are you gonna find places that don't take card 💀💀💀
(Edit: In Cape Town Sorry... in Joburg you might need cash)

What's the name of the currency app?
@@Vendie-x6v it’s just called “Currency” it’s yellow with a $ sign
How safe is South Africa?
Its not
@@OlumideSimeon-e2g the areas we were in i found to be extremely safe!
As a woman, how was going out at night? did you use uber? was it safe?
I felt pretty safe. No experiences of bad/weird Uber drivers. We stayed in most of the well known areas and we didn’t party in downtown Joburg.
Umuhle Yana, you look like my wife
💀💀💀
lol Joburg is dry, never humid
Hm maybe because it rained so it was humid
