I am from Jamaica and very much fascinated with different cultures and languages. I learned Spanish and Persian and now I am learning IsiZulu (Zulu) and the letters C, Q and X are pronounced with clicks. Although she speaks Xhosa the pronunciation of those letters are the same. The C sounds like sucking something from upper front teeth. The Q sounds like one would make if telling the sound a cork make when being pulled from a bottle. The X sounds like what you make when expressing regret or spurring on a horse.
Hi thank you for this. Siki Jo-an is Xhosa and the song is sung in Isixhosa. 1of 11 official language in South Africa. The start is Ululatining a african cultural cry. Isixhosa is a language which is spoken with clicks. The original song from miriam makeba is better
