Language Room performing on the Outdoor Stage - March 18, 2010

Good morning, Thank you, How are you and Good bye in almost all GCE languages.

The following is a list of phrases that can be used when visiting a region where the primary language is Zulu.

  

Sawubona

Hello, to one person

Hello, to a group of people

  

Unjani? / Ninjani?

How are you (sing.)? / How are you (pl.)?

Hamba kahle / Sala kahle

Go well / Stay well, used as goodbye. The person staying says "Hamba kahle", and the person leaving says "Sala kahle". Other translations include Go gently and Walk in peace.

  

Hambani kahle / Salani kahle

Go well / Stay well, to a group of people

  

Eish!

Wow! (No real European equivalent, used in South African English) (you could try a semi-expletive, such as oh my God or what the heck. It expresses a notion of shock and surprise)

  

Hhayibo

No! / Stop! / No way! (used in South African English too)

  

Yebo

Uqonde ukuthini?

What do you mean?

  

Thina, bantu baseNingizimu Afrika, Siyakukhumbula ukucekelwa phansi kwamalungelo okwenzeka eminyakeni eyadlula; Sibungaza labo abahluphekela ubulungiswa nenkululeko kulo mhlaba wethu; Sihlonipha labo abasebenzela ukwakha nokuthuthukisa izwe lethu; futhi Sikholelwa ekutheni iNingizimu Afrika ingeyabo bonke abahlala kuyo, sibumbene nakuba singafani.

 

Translation:

 

We, the people of South Africa, Recognize the injustices of our past; Honor those who suffered for justice and freedom in our land; Respect those who have worked to build and develop our country; and Believe that South Africa belongs to all who live in it, united in our diversity.

 

The root word Zulu can be combined with a number of prefixes to create other words. Here is a table showing a number of words constructed from the roots – Zulu and ntu (the root for person/s; people).

  

Prefix

-zulu

-ntu

  

um(u)

umZulu (a Zulu person)

umuntu (a person)

  

ama, aba

amaZulu (Zulu people)

abantu (people)

  

isi

isiZulu (the Zulu language)

isintu (culture, heritage, mankind)

  

ubu

ubuZulu (personification/Zulu-like tendencies)

ubuntu (humanity, compassion)

  

kwa

kwaZulu (place of the Zulu people)

  

i(li)

izulu (the weather/sky/heaven)

  

pha

phezulu (on top)

  

e

ezulwini (in, at, to, from heaven)

  

Some prefer to call Zulu isiZulu in English as per the Zulu name for the language.

Aside from the three computer labs, there is also a language lab in the W.K. Kellogg Library, where non-Spanish speakers can go to learn Spanish with Rosetta Stone. Students who want to learn another language other than Spanish may find the lab useful as well.

The writing says body. Not really neat, but I like it somehow.
