Nambya Culture has with it an abundance of beautiful and healthy foods that leave one yearning for more. As shown by our guest Nene Ncube (Nene is grandmother in Nambya), the Nambya Food Culture is very unique and authentic. Further, we also get to discuss the several cultural and traditional practices surrounding Nambya Culture. This visit to Lukosi Village in Hwange surely made us believe that ‘BaNambya bana nobupenyu bunonakilika’ (The Nambya people have an interesting life).
~What Was Prepared By Nene Ncube:

~About Magriza Made Me Cook:
» Magriza is slang for uGogo (Grandmother in isiNdebele) and the name of the show is derived from Prince's inspiration for falling in love with cooking; his grandmother. The goal of MMMC is to document and serve Africa's diverse food culture, one dish at a time. We believe that Africa has got unique meals that ought to be talked about, and most importantly, cooked consistently. We believe in the values of Ubuntu, Respect, Creativity and Minimalism.

Nambya sounds like a mix of Shona and Kalanga
The only utuber that is breaking boundaries in educating us thanks bhudi
Thank you for the feedback Charles Ncube!
I am a Botswana from the North East, which classifies me as a Kalanga/Karanga. I am so blown away by how I am learning the origins of our ancestors. Great work and may God bless you for recording our past for future reference.
Thank you so much for watching🙏🏽
I am Xhosa of the Gcaleka, with some Mbo (of the Karanga via the Dlamini lineage) and I too feel the same. I am blown away by hearing common words that we still use 600 years later.
We are finally telling our own stories. Thanks my brother for your great work. Reminds us of our humble upbringings...Aweh!!
Thank you Brian...
Great job, you can hear the relationship between Kalanga and Nambya.
And Venda kancane like the words for food and evening... very interesting indeed!
I Nambya is Khalanga actually
Bakalanga are a big nation, with various tribes and language accents. I grew up long time ago knowing that Banandzwa not Nambya were a Bakalanga tribe of the broader Bakalanga ethnic group. The correct name as they say is Banyayi, a Bakalanga tribal group that inhabits the Maitengwe district in Botswana and western Zimbabwe. In this context Nambya is the area they live in, making them Banandzwa/Nambyians. In a nutshel these are pure Bakalanga.
Kalanga/karanga and Nambya we are the owner of Dzimbagwe in Masvingo
Zokwedu isu bechiNizi, Nambya consists of a certain number of dialects, namely baNyai( Hwange Districts) and baNizi( Victoria Falls Districts), the rest are the Botswana dialects which some differ accent wise whilst some differ on the use of L's as R's as it is influenced by the surrounding Tswana language. The tribe originates in the Great Zimbabwe. NB: DAVID LIVINGSTON WAS NOT THE FIRST PERSON TO SEE THE VICTORIA FALLS, TISU BECHI NIZI, BANAMBYA TOGETHER WITH THE KHOISAN.
Thank you for the feedback!
Mwanangu akandubuja kuti “ mhayi, kuzituma ke” baba bamazhubano so. Magriza ngiyi linguist. Can speak 9 languages plus English. I Stretch from Plumtree to Zambia. Proud to be Zimbo.
its so fascinating how both of you are somewhat understanding each other while speaking different languages.
Thank you so much for watching.
Love nambias. Went to St Mary’s primary in the early 70s. Nambias are a peaceful tribe. Lebelekani chokunasu. I miss home.
Their food is very similar to Aawambo’s food in Namibia 🇳🇦 . Even the way they prepare the food. Mahangu ( same grain as the one in the video) is our staple food.
First time hearing about this tribe “Nambya”.Is this in Zimbabwe?
Ndaboka kasa kunditondeja kusha kwedu kuna Lukuze, watching from 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Taboka Bee Chips!
The swallow is almost like TZ (tuo zafi) eaten with dry okra soup by people in the upper East of Ghana 🇬🇭 same pounding process
Most of your veggies are eaten here too....much love from Ghana 🇬🇭 😋 😍
Am Shona but can understand what the lady is saying clearly.The beauty of languages and different cultures..lovely.
We are one.
Ngiyabonga ngeContent mfowethu inkosi ikuyandisele
Watching your videos feels like home ❤❤ngiyabonga coz i hsve been homesick nowadays
Siyabonga kakhulu Ndlovu
Viva mthwakazi God bless our people
You're a legend ,mate 👏🏽👏🏽
Siyabonga Thabisa Nkomo.
Watching from UK..... My mother is a Nambwean from Njambezi
I am a Southern African Venḓa and I have some Vhanyai/Munyai people in Venḓa as my relatives. It's so refreshing to hear that Nambya language is not so different to TshiVenḓa... I can hear almost all the words even words that are now extinct to both written and spoken venḓa... Word like Ṅombe (cow), which you only now hear in Proverbs and Idioms and sayings eg. Mutupo u tevhela Ṅombe [(A totem follows the Cow (marriage)] . Our languages do connect us if we search deeper into them... Honestly it is easier for me to hear and understand Nambya than Shona languages.
OMG… I can’t believe I have binged watched almost of your videos… asibonge the accuracy in your subtitles
Siyabonga Sisasenkosi
Taboka ivideo am proudly Nambya tribe ndiyeba from Johannesburg
Proud to be a hwange native👏. Thanks mate

Thank you Lanele Dube...
broe never knew hoew the language of Nambiya sounds like thank you man you really changing things
Am glad u featured Nambia , thats my mum z tribe and language ..
Thank you Vengesai for watching the video.
I like the language it is complete kalanga bt with diferent dialect
Nambya, kalanga, manyika, karanga, zezuru are all shona langauges with different dialects... Another great one again. Thank you.
Beg to differ with this .....Shona ain't a language
Nah, nambya is a totally different language sorry
Thank you so much for bringing this information. My maternal grandmother descends from Banandzwa/Banyayi. These are a Kalanga dialect.
Thanks for sharing
Was she speaking Nambya in this video? Obviously African languages have similarities at various different levels subtle and explicit because of the cultural unity of Africa that Dr. Cheikh Anta Diop outlines, we are the same yet diverse people and have been interacting, trading, exchanging and before colonization we had vast kingdoms that would cover vast territories and hence we were not so dispersed, restricted and alienated from each other but I speak Swahili and I heard so many similarities.
Magriza! I like how your interviews are easy flowing and don’t seem forced. Good work 👏🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
Thanks for watching Daniel Oliphant.
Nambia are the most humble pple
True...
Fantastic content. You are unique! So glad to have found it channel!! Well done 👍🏽✅
My mum is Nambya and speaks Ndebele as a Shona speaking person I can understand it well. I'm in love with Nambya
Mixed languages here Karanga Kalanga and some bits of Ndebele and lastly Ndau from Chipinge.Thanks so much for sharing l am learning.
But Nambya people have always been there so Ndebele got words from here and mixed with their Zulu and made Ndebele,
I think Ndebele people got some words from these ones remember the on settler is Ndebele which is. ZULU so any words that exist in Ndebele
Ohk anyways its a mixture of many Zim langauges if you listen to gogo speaking dont how it originated but just said what l realised from the vlog thanks.
It's typical bantu language, the dialects are similar but this is chinyayi kasa kasa. Taboka nzekulu magriza, as we learn each other's language and culture, we appreciate Ubuntu
Wow , sounds like Kalanga 👍
Your channel will grow, also do that here in South Africa
The channel is already grown, 3000 subscriptions is not a joke especially if you are from Bulawayo 😁😁😁😁
Thank you watching Lucy.
Yes it will grow indeed.
There is a bit of Venda again in Nyai language whatever it is their culture is similar to ours from Shurugwi rural in the 90s.But food is diff only a little is known too.
True on the language Shamiso Makuvaro.
Wow !! Enjoyed the documentary Nambya culture tundonga yoto ummm ndawhe zhala
This made me so happy❤️
Siyabonga Prince for the work you are doing. Keep it up
Keep it up. I love learning other people's cultures. Thank you
This is my first time to hear about this tribe
Unique tribe Bi Tube.
Great job keep it up
Thank you Mahlangu. Again you went deep on this one. Can’t wait for the next...keep it up.
Thank you Mandla.
Great work Prince ! Never knew the back bencher shy-guy is doing so much in connecting and exposing our intricate culture. Love mama's clarity and authority. Tinoboka kasa.
I can pick the Shona&Ndebele but the other one sounds like Zambian Language! How have i just found this tribe now 🤩
Beautiful culture.
Siyabonga!!
Ah, bless Nene. I loved the way you were talking to each other, each in their mother tongue with pure respect and patience for the other! Beautiful! Thank you for sharing once again!
Thank you for watching..
Your program is the best on you tube my guy

Very interesting and strong point on 16:00 , education has destroyed us.
Amazing video bro
Thanks Sean Musona!
Siyabonga. Very interesting

True Nolwazi.
I love how uyakhuluma and umama uyataura yet there is perfect understanding.

Great work, we appreciate your dedication and hard work
Thank you brother Sean.
Thank you, thank you
Very educational! Keep this up man. I really enjoy your content. Just also noticed how Nambya is so similar to Shona I could understand 90% of what she was saying without the subtitles. Also Nene Ncube is the best!
Thank you Rumbidzai Gandiwa.
Nice one Magri,the nation needs something like this on national television to showcase the different tribes and their cultures found in Zimbabwe ,cultural exchanges especially in schools where different tribes will be assembled and showcase their way of living will encourage unity.loved your video
Thank you so much for the feedback.
I would like to believe that all Rozvi / lozwi before disintegration of Rozvi dynasty used to speak this , My grandfather used to speak like this
I love and appreciate what you do bro😊
Thank you so much 😀
I love your channel. I love what you do! It's more than food. It's educational. I had n idea that Nambiya sounded like chiKaranga
Thank you so much. Yes, there are in the same language structure.
Thanks bro u are very humble and it shows u have respected your parents and brought properly this is very interesting because the language its a mixture of every Zimbabwe native language I have watched this 3 times ummm this is good we should be proud of our food and culture.
Am Zimbos but never heard this language fascinating keep educating us about our own country
Beautiful language Bawws.
@@MagrizaMadeMeCook no doubt , I feel I know more about other countries than my own lol
@@vkjfv same bro
This is awesome thanks for profiling my people and their food, really made me home sick😂 tundonga are the best.
Hie Sansole. Thanks for watching and YES tundonga are the best.
Waaaw this is very interesting episode. Really love the way she talks. Intelligent n full of confidence. Her food is very yummy 😋
The food was tasty and delicious Mhopi.
As a Shona speaker i fully understand everything she is saying. I dont need translation. Keep up the good work.
Thank for watching Tafadzwa.
@@MagrizaMadeMeCook I appreciate what you are doing bro. Showing us what Zim is made of. Its made up of so many different tribes and all of them should be protected.
Great work bra
Elli Dube, thanks for watching.
Awesome ❤️
Thank you my son ,subscribed.Sithule sent me 🥰
Welcome to MMMC. Thank you...
BaNyai ppl historically documented to be a sister tribe to Kalanga/Karanga but it sounds more of mixture of Venda/Kalanga ( a few words)/Karanga. The food is same as the Ama Kalanga ppl with some minor differences. This migration history is very intriguing. If only you could do the cookery session with the San people near that part of the country.
Thanks for the feedback. Will definitely look upon the ideas you've suggested.
They more Karanga words can hear Nambya very well
Bro this is Shona dialect we only have few different words . Everything is similar
This is awesome.
Thank you Linda!
Keep doing exploring throughout the country Mahlangu, You're doing a good work about Magriza M' Cook
Thank you EE.Nene. Zimbabwe is beautiful.
Wow!! Eye opening conversations!!! Tabonga!

Thank you Sibongile 🙏🏽
Beautiful language, I really enjoyed listening to her.
Glad you enjoyed it Shacky!
So many languages in Zimbabwe 😘😘
I am Venḓa and i can understand most of what she is saying without reading subtitles 😊😇
Zubhodho yozu! Mabhata nshingo!
I think we need an extension on your channel... a section for languages. This is an amazing episode
Thanks for watching Ndlovukazi M. The language is beautiful.
I m from Botswana, all I can say is that Nambya is close to Kalanga and Venda
They do exist in Botswana. They are found in Gweta. My mom is Nambya from Gweta and my dad is kalanga.
@@millie698kana I was asking myself because I know in BW it’s like BaNambya are also regarded as a Kalanga tribe but in the comments in Zim it’s like they are 2 tribes.
Hi Mpaphi... That's interesting. Maybe because I grew up knowing that they are different...I never knew that people consider them a dialect of Kalanga. Some have settled in Kumaga even.
@@millie698 that’s nice-we learn everyday.I’m from Tutume & I know our grannies call them “Bananzwa” saying they are northern BaKalanga bc north in Kalanga is Nanzwa.
@@mpaphimooketsisebapalo2956 oooh interesting...yes they are called nanzwa but it's from the Nambya tribe ( the language is the same-ish, obviously it has been diluted a bit by setswana etc)...just like you would be kalanga this side and karanga that side.
Sounds more like shona just a few different words but for a person who speak shona its easy to understand this language.
Kkkkkk siyabonga bhudi.inyoni lezo ngathi zimnandi ngifisukuzitesta .
Thanks Langa.
Surely ukufunda akupheli
Akupheli Sandisiwe...
Thank you so much for your work. Your pieces are very informative. I lived in Hwange and loved my Nambya people. It us interesting to notice the similarities in language. I would want to hear the background story of the migration from the Rozvi
Thanks for sharing your story.
I want to believe that Rozvi language was like this , I want to believe the this is a bit diluted language of Rozvi dynasty. My grandfather born in 19th century used to say this
My grandfather used to speak like this but lives in Midlands
Thank you so much. Isi nambya sihlangeni Ndebele/Shona and bit of Kalanga. I need to b corrected
True Rejoice.
Man am loving this Damn u r dope dude ,, this is authentic shit hands down , no one does it like u in Zim ..
Why is your comment punctuated with vulgarities? Grow up.
Thanks Vengesai.
What a dialect, I picked Kalanga,Ndebele and Shona
A unique dialect Revonia.
Banyayi ndisu .......Taboka..
Lovely like the language l can listen to the lady speaking all day.❤
Beautiful language.
Ndayeya chipero. 😅
Wow umsebenzi o muhle bhudwami
Thank you so much...
For as a kalanga it's is to catch this language same time
Taborha nene maNcube🌹💖👏
Taboka Nene...
Well done Prince!
Thank you Blessed.
@@MagrizaMadeMeCook , could you perhaps on the intro of your videos, show an animated or google map of Zimbabwe, then province, district then the name of the town or village where you shot the video so that many people could be familiar with Zimbabwe in detail?
Very interesting and enjoyable. I had never even heard of a language or culture called Nambya.... which is quite sad being a Harare-based Zimbabwean. The dish with the little birds was just flavoured with tomatoes and salt. After tasting it was there a hint of smokiness in the dish from the fire she cooked on? Sometimes that also contributes to the flavour of the meal.
Yes there was a hint of smokiness...
