Tata is also in Polish. I study psychology and recently I've learnt that "ta" as well as "ma" are syllables universal for humankind, as they are the easiest to vocalize. Therefore, "tata" and "mama" or similar are common ground.
@@Evelyn-xx8qx someone already made a similar comment, but it is actually quite common for languages to have simple words like "tata" or "mama" as "cradle words." These are the easiest to say as a baby and likely the first words a baby would say, all be it accidentally.
Nothing interesting and ultimately boring.. Words for father and mother (or rather dad and mommy) are the same or similar in almost all human languages. Read about "nursery words" - they are so similar across the globe only because they are created by children. There is no hidden mistery in this
Molo sisi ive been trying to learn isixhosa for over a year and your teaching is very easy to catch on to ndicela tell me u doing a course or just more conversational xhosa enkosi in advance from your bhuti in America 💪🏿💯
You should make more tutorials on full sentences of day to day things . Like putting petrol in to the tank AT A garage or talking to the bus driver and such stuff . Love your videos sisi
Would you make a video on pronunciation rules. I understand the clicks...and the vowels. However, I noticed the t sounds like a d, the n is sometimes silent. 'W' sounds like way...these are things that would be helpful to know. Also alphabet and numbers would be helpful.
Yes! I have watched a handful of videos on isiXhosa and not many go beyond explaining the three major click sounds, but there's also for example the "hl" sound which is different... I would personally also like to know if words beginning with nd drop the n sound...
Ndiyathanda isixhosa. I took a class at UCT a couple years ago and upon moving back to the States I've become rusty. I plan on returning to ekapa soon kodwa I andifuni disappoint my friends with my declining skills. Do you do lessons on a social media or do chats?
Guys how are you, please teach me lento yeSiXhosa that sounds like icebe ne bhele. I know I'm incorrect I'm just typing what I hear. Please someone tell the correct phrase. Thank you ❤
I find it quite interesting how the positive statement of isiXhosa are in the form of negative isiZulu statements. In isiZulu if the statement starts with an A and ends with an i it's a negation. ngikukhumbula means I miss you, and Angikukhumbuli means I don't miss you. Wait I just realized you're teaching us wrong, it is like Zulu
Huge warning to everyone, 80% of these statements are incorrect, and some of them are egregiously incorrect in that they say the opposite thing. Awusemhle mean "you are not beautiful". Google translate it. I also know because I studied isiZulu and the negation is the same
Please give us more like this! I want all the words, verbs, gramma. The way you teach is very very good. Please give us more sisi

Wow! I am very impressed that "tata" is the word of "father" in Xhosa. In Náhuatl, "tahtli" and "tata" are also words for father!
haha I guess there is no connection at all but tata ist dad in Croation too xD

Is it a tone to the language?
Kutheni also have two meanings and the other meaning is, 'Why', "kutheni ungalali" , "why aren't you sleeping"
Thank you. You are appreciated ❤

It should be akusemhle mntase not awusemhle.
For some reason I don’t think I heard a single thing she said this entire lesson.
