Here is an interesting one. Amongst AmaNdebele in Zimbabwe, the Zulu warrior king is known as uTshaka (pronounced Chaka with the "ch" sound as in "choose" or "champion"). Among the Zulu today, he is known uShaka (pronounced with the "Sh" sound as in "show" or "shine"). Now here's the thing, a century ago, when the Zulu royal family built his memorial, here's how they spelt his name.
Also, some Englishman (Francis George Farewell) taught him how to sign his own name on documents and we have some signed documents that survived. He signed his name as "Chaka" not "Shaka" as the Zulu call him today. 👇🏾
I will leave you to guess which of the two dialects is closer to "the original"...🤣
Your are a star, @DaleSteyn62
It’s no secret I have a close relationship with Zimbabwe, so I’m always routing for them as a country, for the people, for their cricket.
That said, with the World Cup coming up next year I’d encourage people to look at Victoria Falls as a destination to visit and watch games, even if it’s not your team, you won’t be disappointed, I promise you that!
Cape Town is the obvious choice for hot spot right now, but I have a feeling after the WC supporters will say Vic Falls was their favorite. Don’t miss out. You’re welcome 👊

I judge Berita here, who in their right mind will date or even marry that Nota😳? She was the problem here, for not taking herself seriously. A normal person who values herself CANNOT even give Nota her contact number haibo😭, the moment he greets, I would say VOETSEK VOETSEK
When you enter a room you greet those already in the room innit? It's your responsibility to greet first, that is common courtesy. Anything less is rudeness.

Let's stop lying for engagement farming, i am a product of Malawian descent people, on my Zimbabwean ID,i don't have a village that i come from, we were born, grew up in Zimbabwe and not even 1 day have i ever felt out of place growing up in Mbare, Zimbabwe's oldest suburb.
Last night as I was sleeping:
"A family is seated at a dinner table.
The mother asks her youngest daughter if she has any plans for marriage.
Like, has she met a suitable beau yet?
Young daughter replies, nah.
Elder sister asks, 'How about Hugh Grant?'

You are so invested. So dumb. So desperate.
Take your Starlink to Iceland and freeze your ignorance there!!! 🚮
