[lBRON1000]

LOL!! that was so funny.

[Bozewani]

Woohoo, race sucks, we are human woohoo!

[Bozewani]

Xhosa has 3 different clicks, but 15 derivations of them,(JUST LIKE ZULU).

Let' see if I know some of the click words

ezoqoqosho- ecomonics

sixhenkxe- seven

uluncwadi-literature

ubugcisa- art

[0stsee]

Is it true that Xhosa has fifteen click consonants? (Source: Wikipedia)

[j0eg0d]

I only know "click" "clock" "clack" and "cluck".

[Graanvlok]

Tsk, YouTube "ate" my first comment...that's why my last comment started with "by the way"...In my first comment I basically said that Xhosa is a so-called Bantu language, although it was influenced by the Khoisan languages, hence the clicks.

[zimempress]

you are right I speak 3 of those Bantu languages fluently all having the clicks in them Ndebele , Zulu and Xhosa .. but Xhosa has more clicks than the Zulu and Ndebele... if you understand one you will understand the other .

[mrsberlee]

Doen't lie. Xhosa has got a few clicks while Khoisan's language has got many clicks. Don't be a proffesor of a language that is not your mother-tongue!!!

[mhd76]

This is my favorite response to khayav's challenge! hahaha

[ricadelide]

LOL!!!!

[luvethiopiabetam]

you are actually good. and you made me laugh too :)

[grafinia]

Hey man what is this?

[j0eg0d]

Follow the response link. I'm trying to speak another language.

[grafinia]

Yeah that is crazy :0 U r better than me. But there is a guy who sounds good saying it. Do you know what language is it?

[j0eg0d]

That guy was good. It's basically a Khoisan language, but KhayaV called it something specific like "isiXhosa" I think.

[Graanvlok]

No, no, it's not a Khoisan language at all!

[j0eg0d]

I think it is called that on a generalized term for the broader regions.

I just couldn't remember the specifics that Khaya said.

Please clarify me, if I'm mistaken. Everyone is interested in this.

[Graanvlok]

j0eg0d: By the way, the use of the term "black" in South Africa isn't felt as derogatory, because, of course, "African American" won't work here. ;-) We do use "African" as well, but that is controversial because white (and blue, purple, green, etc.) people who have lived here for generations are, of course, "Africans" as well...:p~

[j0eg0d]

LOL - Well, as an artist I wouldn't call Khaya "black".

Actually people might be surprised that I can use a variation of one color for every race in the world.

All colors are based on red, yellow & blue. So to a painter; we're all just a different shade of yellow.

[nomarayixa]

what...? unxilile!

[ceniboy]

You're absolutely right! Also the term African American is flawed because Berbers and Egyptians living in America are African American and not Black.

[Graanvlok]

j0eg0d: Xhosa is a so-called Bantu language, although it was influenced by the Khoisan languages, hence the clicks.
