Thumbs up

i'm not sure what your asking, AmerAwake. if you're talking about tutors and resources, its a little daunting. i have it a bit easier because i know some south africans here and my boyfriend is Xhosa. if you're talking about congnition and learning ability, its not that hard. at least i don't think so. the clicks are kinda intimidating but if you work at that, everything else is phonics.

i'll keep digging for sechaba, whoopi

That was another one of my questions: tutoring. Are there any studying abroad programs where I would possibly be able to come to South Africa to learn Zulu or Xhosa or Swahili? I would very much like to do something like that. Let me know if you here of any Nonkosi...

Hello Whoopi,How are you today? Are you Whoopi Goldburg one of my favorite black people? I'm just messing with I bet you get that allot.Well I think that you should learn isiZulu and isiXhosa,because that's what I'm learning right now and we can help each other.Well i actullay been speaking isiZulu for about 4 yrs. now, but I don't have anyone to speak with. I've been searching the inter net for different people to speak to, but nobody has answerd my call so I'm all alone.

Sorry to tell you, but I'm not Whoopi Goldberg. I'm just a 15 years old girl from Italy who loves Southafrica and whose life is Whoopi Goldberg.

I'm learning English, German, Russian and Latin in addition to Italian and Slovenian. For me that's enough But in future I hope that I'll learn Zulu!
