- Hey guys
So in today's video I am joined by my floor mates, in the video we will be translating English sentences in our different languages just to see what the difference is cause these languages(Setswana, Sepedi & Sesotho) are quite similar. Shoutout to my friends for pulling through with the English sentences, kea leboga.
I hope you enjoyed this as much I did and thank you so much for watching.

Pitorians watching this like , “why separate all 3 if you can fuse them as 1?🌚” 😂
😅😅😅
FACTSSSSS

🤣 🤣 🤣
I’m an American and my mums motswana but I grew up in Botswana for most my childhood and learned Setswana, and I have been to South Africa where i can understand Spedi and Sesotho but not in it’s entirety I used to wonder they say strange speaking “Setswana” 😂 now I know. now I’m back in America and i learned to speak French and Portuguese and through learning those languages I’m proud I know Setswana. Please keep your beautiful language and culture with you, don’t ever lose it…
I'm coming to fetch you
You coming back man
Let's keep...
Ke Motswana but Sesotho has my heart
The Tswana girl really represented us well, I was nervous at first cause wow there's so many "versions" of setswana that aren't really proper setswana.
Hehehehe nnya .. ne a buwa side line Setswana eseng proper one, mare ne ke mo utlwa🤣
@@pulanemakhoane1440 there is no such a thing as mmereko in Setswana. Ke, a o dirile tiro gae ya sekolo? Mmereko ke batho ba Pitori.
@@pulanemakhoane1440 no you are wrong rra there is proper setswana mmereko is an Afrikaans word in setswana there's a lot of Afrikaans words because batswana lived with the boers for a very long time but if you don't know proper setswana you will not know the Afrikaans words in setswana from proper pure setswana.
@@mopailo6231 mmereko ga se batho ba pitori fela ke batswana fela in general after living with the boers as neighbors for a long time there are borrowed words and it's many of them but there is proper setswana that we can differentiate.
But setswana is brought language with many synonyms.
Sepedi comes from setswana and Sesotho as well.
Eve xitsonga has some similar words to setswana so if you go deeper you'll realize that it's a very brought language.
Some people actually don't know that words like bolela or sepela is setswana they think these words are sepedi words but they are actually setswana words.
@@ferdykeyz4583 really, that's your modified Setswana and keep it to yourself. Don't confuse us with your confused dialectical version of language. There's no such a thing as mmereko, bolela and sepela. Ke tlhakatlhakano ya lona batho ba Pitori.
Take me out of it!
Tswana seems to have a higher level of variation but all the languages are very similar
Ke Mopedi but I did Setswana as my home language at school and I'm a self taught Sotho, I love this content 😍💕
True
Guys the Tswana girl is absolutely beautiful.
She looks like she has lots of San admixture. Lovely cheekbones
The Sesotho girl really represented us very well!✨
Extremely well
helek! Haholo!!!!
Ke thabile o re beile hantle
Ntle le swimming. In real Sesotho that's ho sesa
Hampe feela😊
Me realizing that I'm merging all the languages into one. Living in the sithi tings😭😭😭
While I do the same with IsiZulu and IsiXhoxa 😂😂😂😂
Are you from Johannesburg? Coz same
@@phiwelove no, I just school there
😂 😂 😂 😂 You're not the only one. I'm a gauteng boy, i do the exact same thing
@@KaraboLesenya bt there's huge diff between isiZulu n isiXhosa😂😂😂😂
I like how the sotho lady articulates sotho words. She got the phonetics right.
The emphasis on the tl tl sounds in "moriri oa hao o motle" were well articulated
Well she's from Lesotho, perhaps that's why her articulation is 👌🏾... 🤷🏾♀️
I love her sotho💞
She's from Lesotho
Wow I can tell
She is so good
When ausi said"Ke Mosotho",i knew that enoa !, enoa ke oa haeso, ha moshoeshoe. 😩
OE OTLILE MOTSEKENG
@@hopdrizzygettingbusy7589 SA sesotho is different from the Lesotho one
Very informative, I'm a coloured guy from CPT and my only exposure to all these languages are from some songs on the radio and some words like dumela or tswarelo. Please keep making more videos on this topic. Dankie/Ke a leboha.
Go leboga nna 🙏🏾✨
teach me coloured slangg
Idk why mara this video made me so happy to be motswana and that we were represented well. kana Setswana in Botswana sone se a fapana (it varies) from region to region
Same, Setswana used in this video is more of Serolong than Sekwena or Sehurutshe.
If you live in Pretoria townships it's easy to juggle between Setswana, Sesotho and Sepedi. It just happens naturally to most people here.
It's the same language.
Wadi Judger jo
@@pulemolefe6104 similar not the same 😭
I listern to sepotori badi mixer dile 3
Wow seTswana is actually more difficult than seSotho
I can't decide which one is easier ey 😅
Sotho is better is not that difficult
True
EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING
Ntšebo ke Mosotho for reals🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ke utloa ka accent ea "ke Mosotho". Yes o Mosotho ngoaneso 🤣🤣
I'm Pedi, but Tswana for me is 👌. I'd love to master it.
as a pedi dude i cant help but notice the girl with the (slightly) slanted eyes and high cheeck bones first, her distinctively tswana phenotype makes her to stand out! she's gorgeous😍 But yea otherwise her other 2 friends are beautiful as well, that being said its so interesting to hear just how similar all these 3 langauges sound!
I'll let her know and thank you for watching ✨🙏🏾
Khoi genes
@@kagi2784 i agree
A.a.a.a! Now that is Sesotho 100% 😂😂😂
The lady on my far right has to be from Lesotho. The accent is pure.
Yes she is from Lesotho
Mix all the 3 and live happily ever after 🤣🤣🤣
Haha very funny 😅
I’ve always thought I understand atleast 90prcnt of Setswana until I visited Botswana 1 time..Yeii 😂🙆🏾♂️🙆🏾♂️!! Otherwise I love Batswana and Pedis, Our cousins these ones!
I am Silozi AKA lozi speaking from Zambia and Namibia and our languages are so similar
We are one thing cuz ❤ my mind was blown when I discovered SiLozi a few years ago
It was so interesting to see especially because we all speak different dialects under all these languages 😅
I spotted this by chance, but this was very entertaining to watch. Tswana girl, ke motlotlo mo go wena.
One language different dialects. Ke Mopedi and I feel like we're more close to Sesotho than Setswana.
We are that’s why scientifically we called Northern Sotho
We close to both😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@ronaldsello7078 it's literally the same thing. We are all from the Hurutshe.
@@Phakamani8 True
@@hlogilehlogonolo5438 Northern Sotho 😂. It was a politically coined term by the Apartheid Government to combine all dialects in Limpopo cz they only knew Sekhukhune history through missionaries. They didn’t know Balobedu, Batlokwa, Ndebeles, Mapulana etc and this dialects were not in a written form. And they just reduced Sepedi to a dialect, while it’s a dominant language. There is no such a thing as Sesotho sa Lebowa. Why Basotho don’t call themselves Southern Sotho? And Batswana Western Sotho? We are Bapedi speaking Sepedi. Basotho ba ko Lesotho. That’s why Basotho in Lesotho will always laugh at us cz it seems we have an identity crisis and call ourselves Basotho. Yes our language is similar but we are not Basotho ba Lebowa. Moshoeshoe never led Bapedi
I love your NATURAL MORIRI do UP , A Very POWERFUL symbol of AFRICAN AUTHENTICITY and PRIDE!! ,Bravo GIRLS.CULTURE is IMPORTANT Setso Rules.
Thank you ✨ 💕
@@KaraboLesenya KARABO you GUYs ,Kelebogile and Ntsheo Should DO CULTURAL/TRADTIONAL FASHION Show, some GAMES like DIKETO and Maipatile !! ie (HIDE and SEEK) just for REVIVAL of the Real South African KASI or Village life .Do not LOOSE that ,It is our EXTERNAL NEURON CONNECTION Part of our SETSO .NO!! to Artificial PLASTIC Cultures from Outside.
Y'all took me back home, I enjoyed hearing Sotho words that I have forgotten....lol
😂 😂 😂 😂 Thank you for watching 💜💜
Am in a process of learning sipedi.. just found out that I am speaking the 3 as one😂😂
It happens to most people shame 😂😂😂
I thought I'm the only one. And Having difficulties differentiating whether its Sotho or Sepedi 😂
ke sepedi not sipedi warra
Shem as a pedi I do that 🤣
Most of us will understand you either way.
That motswana girl speaks the same dialect as mine here in Botswana idk if ele morolong because the words she uses I also use in my dialect
sesotho my language
It’s similar to my language siLozi 🙌🏾
I would definitely learn seSotho, maybe it would facilitate learning the basics of the 2 other languages, I'm very passionated by traveling and communication.
Us kasi people outchere thinking " wow they seperated my language into 3"😂😂
Wow 😂 😂 😂 💀... kasi ya ko kae?
🤣🤣🤣bathong Kgomotso
@@KaraboLesenya in Eastrand, We have all 3 sotho languages and it's hard to differentiate coz it's a rainbow city.
May I say, you are all so delightful and beautiful. The warm way you share your cultures with us and each other is inspiring, and an excellent example for everyone. 😊❤️ Thanks, and best wishes from Canada!
I love the hair and everything. I'm half pedi grew up speaking spitori. We fused this three lingos.
Thank you 😁✨. You said you are half Pedi, what's your other half?
@@KaraboLesenya I'm half malawian :).
This was so much fun, I enjoyed it❤️.
I'm glad you did 😁💜
I'm enjoying this, my mother ke motswana, my father mosotho but I grew up a motswana, and I watch skeem saam.😍😂
Thank you for watching bitso 😂✨💜
@@KaraboLesenya ❤️🌹
Hi girls, i love the content, please be creative and make a series of episodes and speak about different specific topics, eg (today we are taking about food, ), please try putting english subtitles to cover more audience. you can put a culture flag next to each 1 of you so that i can easily identify who is pedi e.t.c.
BW here, Wa setswana o bua sa mafikeng se se tshwanang le sepedi
Our relatives love from Barotseland :)
"Do you guys want them to follow you?" "Mmhm re sharp" 🤣
They did not hesitate whatsoever 😂😂
You 3 are so sweet ❤️ blessed beautiful South Africa 🇿🇦 how I miss this country
Thank you for watching 😊where are you based at now?
I enjoyed this friend. It's very educational
Wow. Kelebogile for real. Never thought I would see you on the Tube.
You know we speak different types of SeTswana ,so some Tswana people use words that Pedi and Sotho commonly use but some don’t use those words a lot but they are still Tswana
Nope! Ma adingwa ke ma adingwa, they do not form a different kind of Setswana, they are just that, Borrowed words! We do have a few dialects, im aware of only 3 but when you use words from other languages (Yes its common for us to mix but thats not our language) you are just borrowing hence they are called ma adingwa.
Nostalgia!! I just remembered when i started working, I moved to Free State to live with a lady wa ko Qwaqwa (nna im from Mahikeng and at this stage in life I could not mix to save my life). She had a friend who was a regular vistor from Lesotho. Because of the misconception that these languages are the same it took us 3 weeks to finally admit we need to teach each other our languages coz truth is Ga re utlwane le`eseng and we were busy trying to cook e le bo "wena o tla apeha mokopu" "Eengg?" (points) "Ohhh o batla gore lephutshe" for literally EVERYTHING, it was taking hours!! 😂😂
This is funny 😂 😂 I'm glad I was able to take you down to a fun memory lane
There are so many similarities and differences as well 😃 I enjoyed this video so much!!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it 💃💃❤️❤️
Both my parents are sotho i was born in Lesotho but grew in Botswana so i had to learn both languages 😂
And which one would you say it's easier for you?
@@KaraboLesenya i used to do Setswana at school then i stopped eversince then it has been a bit hard for me but it was really easy but i will say Sesotho is easy as i speak it everyday
Proud pedi girl, you represented us mogul
Kea leboga ✨💜
Lol, intresting 😂😂😂 I think Nguni people should try it as well
I am for this 😂😂
We are “oNga woni” (people who don’t sin), NOT “Nguni”. It’s the white men who misunderstood us and called us Nguni.
Please make other longer one amazing 👌
Most South African mix up setswana with pedi and sotho. But there, the best setswana is spoken by Motsweding FM radio presenters and Kopano FM presenters according to me or otherwise you can learn a fine one from Batswana who living in Botswana because they are not likely to mix it up most South Africans.
am from Botswana mare keng the guys at Motswedi fm are very very good in Setswan.better than our presenters here in Botswana.
@@ditiropheko1412 they might be respecting the language. Radio presenters in Botswana like to combine English and Setswana when they speak and that maybe make them loose most of Setswana vocabulary.
Setswana has a lot of vocabulary too just like English language. You can use some words in place of others that offers the same meaning.
Have yall heard setswana sa taung/vryburg we dont mix
Even those from zeerust
Sepedi & Sesotho i feel like are easily to learn...Setswana some words are hard to hear...great content👏👏
I don't know what it is but I love Setswana...... Thank you ✨ 🙏🏾
I'm a Swazi🇸🇿🇸🇿..I'm keen to learn those 3 languages ...
I loved that please do more. Now I don't know which one I like most
Ntshebo. I was so ready to follow her. Please tell her to start her own TH-cam. She's a natural bethuna 😍
And thank you for the content. I enjoyed it ❤️
Kelebogile can effortlessly ace voice overs ✨
I have told both of them and they said they'll consider what you are saying 😁
@@KaraboLesenya Ntse re eme, se le tla re joetsa ha ho so nepahetse 😅
It's been almost over two years now and I think it's safe to say that they are not social media people 😅🤷🏾♀️
Really speaking i can't differentiate between Setswana, Sepedi & Sesotho. Your language are very similar. but ai Setswana is the one that is difficult here.
I just googled with regard to percentage in South Africa
Sepedi/Northern Sotho is 9.1%
Setswana 8%
Sesotho 7.6%
Really great video.... You should consider a part 2
My take as a Silozi (Serotse) speaker. Sesotho was the most understandable to me. Setswana was more difficult.
And where would you rate Sepedi if I may ask?
@@KaraboLesenya I think it's a close second to Sotho. I was a cartoon show on YT with the character Noko Mashaba and the Sipedi being spoken is easy to understand.
Oh alright. I remember Noko Mashaba 😂funny guy. Anyway, thank you for watching 🙏🏾
Ke kopa o Jwestse Mosotho wa heso hore kea mo rata, eseng ha ngane❤❤( I am sure that there are a lot of errors 😂😂) BUT I NEEDED THIS VIDEO. Ke mo Sotho from my dad's side, then kebe mo Swati from my mom's side 😅. So i got the best of both worlds. But then 'Sithi life' makes us mix everything😵
Much love ladies❤❤
Ohh you are Swati, I think you might like a similar video I did with my Swati friend🤔. When you do get the chance, please do have a look at it😁🙏🏾.
Thank you 💜💜💜
Tsamaya ka Sepedi refers to the act of going somewhere, whereas sepela can also refer going somewhere or to the actual act of walking.
I really loved this video. As for kele saying "ha o utswe?" 😂😂😂
😂 😂 😂 Thank you 💜
I literally laughed. 🤣🤣🤣
I absolutely enjoyed this video! 👌🏾❤️
Go sepela - to walk
Go tsamaya - to go
Go seppa - to walk (in pulaar or Fulani) wow! Incredible!
Ebe e tloga e nyaka le e game le phopholetša mokaka😂gape mmeane moo le kopantše le sekgowa maan😂😂🤞nice video
Ntshebo weh...sesotho sa hao se paqame ha monate hle. Le tjhabang le le dikelang, hao maboteng a marang-rang akere
God, I loved this video❤❤❤
Keep it up🙏
Thank you so much 🙏🏾.
I have other language tags that might spark your interest. Please do check them out in the play list I've created on my channel ✨
My Pedi girls speaks mostly the street language than the written one especially on the issue ya " thinking about many things " I thought she was gonna say mehlayohle as everyday
Really interesting concept
Thank you 💜
I lov you guys.naturally beautiful
Rea leboga 🙏🏾✨
Realized that SA setswana is a bit different from Botswana Setswana and in Botswana as well we have different dialects of Setswana
Amazing stuff 👌🏻
I believe this goes for all languages and it's interesting ey
Thank you ✨
Even here in SA we have different tswanas
I don’t think it’s different where I come from in Tsabong we speak the same dialect as they do in mafikeng and places like Kurumane which is Setlharo
The only difference we can say exist is the dialects but am sure we can communicate with each other without any hardships even when using our dialects because it’s a matter of just explaining what a few words mean. If you go to places like Rustenburg the Setswana they speak there is just the same as the one mostly spoken in Botswana
Yeah right am sure it goes for all languages but it’s just a matter of dialects and a few words there and there even in Botswana we speak different dialects so we can’t say it’s different
Am sure Sesotho and Swati also have different dialects across SA, Lesotho and Eswatini
Pretty cool. There just was a whole lot of direct translation. Love the hair.
Thank you 🙏🏾✨
I really enjoyed this one, it was educational and I y'alls sense of humor ❤️🎉🎊
I'm glad you you enjoyed it 😂❤️
Hystorically the batswana, bapedi and basotho originated from one tribe called Basotho from central africa they migrated south on different times thats why the languages differ a little presently mostly due to inter merriages with differet tribes.
Lol we don't have "tsamaya" in pedi 😂 I love what you guys did with the video.
Nna I use "tsamaya" ey 💀....... I'm glad you love it ✨ 💜
We do have "tsamaya " is sepedi sa Ga-mphahlele too😊 tsamaya le sepela ke mahlaolosetša go tee i think
Tsamaya e gona ka Sepedi.
We do have tsamaya. Ke lehlalosetsa go tee la sepela
Real African queens all natural ❤️❤️
Rea leboga 😁 💜
Sotho😭❤
funny how the cc "auto translate" A.I. speech to text has NO CLUE lol
Tswana is so so difficult then Pedi and Sotho yooh
14:27 Yes Sesotho does have the word tsedidi
We the lozi people of western zambia 🇿🇲 can proudly say ..we will never get lost in southern Africa
Lozi is just like Khelobedu
I love this 😀
Motho eno ke mosotho👌🔥
Yes, she's from 🇱🇸
I enjoyed this video banyana ❤😍❤😘

From a 100% Pedi girl. I like this😍
Kea leboga 😁💜
I enjoyed this a lot
Thank you so much for watching ✨ ❤️
One people that's nice
This was fun I really enjoyed.... I wish I could try it on my channel lol 😂
Ke rata Kele ha are "ke mochwana" 😂😂😂
I'm pedi but finding tswana a bit difficult 😂
Well most people are saying that tswana is difficult 😅
I’m mupalana but I speak seSotho because of my maternal side .
Thank you for watching ✨ 💜
Thank you, hope to see more
Thank you too!
I think setswana is difficult and romantic in a way🙈🙈
Pick a struggle, is it difficult or romantic 😂😂😂
Especially when it's spoken by someone who can really speak the language. Purely so
Setswana is easy also, the problem is that some mix it with other African languages while the original one itself if easy. You only need to learn it from someone who speaks it very well.
Am proud as a motswana and sepedi
Amazing content. Part two please? :)
Thank you💜 I'm working on it 😁
aww man, I really love this video. All the similarities and differences.
Ke mo Sotho, empa ke holetse ko Joburg, so you can imagine hore ke di bua 1-for-all! hahahah!
Love your natural hair girls..
Thank you ✨
Interesting beauty African Queens keep it up.
Thanks for watching✨
it wouldve been helpful to see these sentences in their written forms
The video wasn't much of an educational one but rather entertainment, if that was the case to write the sentences on screen would have be ideal
