Aww, 🥰 it’s nice to see that your kids are embracing their roots and learning Shona. I am a London born but my parents are Ghanaian. I didn’t grow up with my parents so I didn’t learn how to speak Twi and I was not taught about my heritage. I can only speak English but I can now understand a little bit of Twi. As a grew up in care, I didn’t have anyone to teach me much about my heritage. If I had a social worker who’s from the same heritage as me, I could relate well with that person and help me understand my culture. It’s important for us to understand where we came from, we know our cultures and languages. Some African parents don’t teach their kids about their roots due to colonialism.
It's Nashe Family you probably speak only Shona when home because children much easier constantly hearing something since I sadly have a better understanding of English than I do Shona because as a child I spent more time listening to English speakers that I did Shona
The best way is to actually speak Shona yourselves in the house. Otherwise they will keep forgetting..they need to attach the meaning to the actions as well
That's true, but as a child who moved away speaking Shona and then lost the ability to speak but still was able to understand, I think it's good to have these lessons to encourage them to say these things out loud! By the way I'm 23 and slowly learning how to put sentences and thoughts together again with the help of my wonderful family!
@@Natalie-of6ip yes, I was not disputing, I was just saying, naturally, anyone, kids or adults , learn more by actually doing and observing... His think of this....How did they learn to speak Shina initially...like when they first spoke...you will realise they just surprised you buy saying out words you never thought they were aware of...they would have heard adults saying it
Great job Mum and Dad. I hit the like button too. Your Sons are so Gorgeous. Welldone. I will be sharing with my nieces and nephews born here and cant speak a word of Shona.

Thank you my lady. I am also tired of this English language. It makes other languages inferior. Further, why is everybody migrating to England? That is a small Island. It cannot accommodate the world. Let’s build our countries and promote our languages. Africa, you have everything everybody wants, wake up. Politicians must debate building Africa, using its resources, in that AU. Thanks Shonas, you make me proud. I am proud of Zimbabwe, especially Robert Mugabe. He started very well. Let’s not forget good things about him. We salute Zimbabwe. From South Africa.
Well done Nashe family.We have done the same for our children by talking to them in Shona in the home. It has empowered them in knowing their own identity a must in a multi cultural environment otherwise you will lose them.
This is beautiful. I’m teaching my 3 Shona as well and this video is helpful. Your oldest boy looks like my oldest. Skin tone, head shape, smile and all ❤️
Your youngest child is evidence of the fact that it’s better to teach our kids Shona when they are younger. They catch on super fast. Well done for the lessons it’s encouraging especially for us in the diaspora
Weldone mum.You are doing a good job. I wish all young Zimbabwen couples would emulate your efforts. Asian and Jewish families are good at it ,Zimbabwens also can do it if they value to maintain the generational order of their cultural history. Those not doing what you are doing are short circuting your cultural heritage.
Inonzi "catch them young" Indeed you are doing a great job.. vana ngavazive ma roots avo.. Speak shona more often in the house.. Make them see shona documentaries ask them to summarise at least they shld gv u an idea of wats being said!! Leta they shld start writing these simple shona words.. by the time they reach grd 7 vanenge vaibva.. vakutotaura fluently... Welldone!!!
This is great. Keep on teaching the children and speak shona more often at home. Continue speaking to them in shona even if they answer back in English. My son was born in Zimbabwe and left when he was 8. He was starting to lose the grip on shona so I have noticed that when I speak to him in Shona it helps a lot.In Zimbabwe he was going to a private school where shona wasn't taught so now I realise I have to work more on the writing and reading I have also bought shona textbooks, and I am teaching him to read .
Thank you we speak Shona and they understand it very well, sis I can’t speak English the whole day when I’m home. Thank you for mentioning that English is taught in Zim someone didn’t understand it at all thought I’m bragging, but yeah will get there.
My son is 2 years and speaks shona fluently. I speak a lot of English at work so when I'm home I speak shona with him. Or have to translate to English or to shona so he understands wat it means in both languages
You are doing the right thing to have time with your children. teach them how to speak shona uye netsika dzakanaka. Vana vanoteerera, Beautiful kids. Welldone. You are a good mother
Well done Mother ...I know so many people who actually show off that their children cannot speak Shona, and yet they were born here in Zimbabwe...you just wonder.
I second that so many people think zvinoshamisira kusataura shona. But you lose so much by not knowing your heritage. People actually envy us when we say we are fluent in more than one language. Kudos mom. My sister has been the UK for more than 15 years and she has a rule no Shona once you enter the door. All three of her kids speak fluent shona. One was born in zim the rest there.
Africa has a group of tribes from what they call Bantu, who come from the East, Central and Southern Africa almost like family or relatives. That's why we can find commonalities in language and culture.

Aww 🤗. It’s never too late hun keep learning you got this. Hugs 🤗
Technically the younger boy is right about the meaning of "iwe" because it can mean a lot of things depending on the tone! 😂😂😂
Very true. Thank you

True that’s how we teach them at home we ask them to do things and they will do it. Stay tuned for another similar video

my husband is Shona, i am Zulu. I didn't even know where to start until i saw this. thanks.
kkkkkkkkkk great
I'm a Zulu lady dating a Shona man for over a year now, I think it's time to learn basics 😂

Shona is a little bit similar to kirundi , like mvura is rain in kirundi
Oh really, where are you from? Is kirundi Swahili?❤️
'mvula' means rain in Zulu 🇿🇦
It's Nashe Family no kirundi is a Burundian language
Mvua is swahili.
Mbura is kikuyu Kenya
Mbua is rain for kamba kenya
Mvula is lingala congo
