KhoeKhoegowab is the most populous and widespread of the Khoisan languages. It belongs to the Khoe language family, and is spoken in Namibia, Botswana, and South Africa by the Namaqua, Damara, and Haillom, as well as smaller ethnic groups such as the #Khomani. The name for Nama speakers, Khoekhoen, is from the Nama word khoe "person", with reduplication and the suffix -n to indicate the plural.

Thusnelda Dausas and Gabriel /Khoeseb are two young teachers from the primery school, a small school vilage called Baumgartsbrunn in Namibia.

  • KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK FAMILY!

  • @TStheEducator Also, to see what I have been attempting, My Lesson Series 400 can be found by search or under My 'playlists'.. just to get an Idea of some of the work I have been doing. Keep up the great work on your KhoeKhoegowab Series and Education. We as Ba-Kongo all throughout Earth Mother look toward the Light of Ku-Kongo for Our guidance.

  • Shikhamana.. I have been doing a Study of both Ki-Kuma [A.Egyptian] and A.Hebrew languages. It should be Known that the foundation of these two languages were Ba-Ntu and San-Khoe. In doing this Study, I have found clear evidences of 'clicks' in both the Ki-Kuma and A.Hebrew languages. If you would be willing to do so, I humbly ask for your advice and direction on the pronunciation, root-stems and proper usage of some of the terms I Am translating. Thanks in advance..

  • Wow i am just impressed and i like the sound of this language pretty much :-)

  • a very unique language. I speak 7 languages and I never encountered any "clicking sounds" in other languages

  • I love African languages and I find those with clicks sounds to be very interesting. God bless us all.

  • very nice video. thanks. your language is very hard! lol i speak soomaali (sounds like arabic)

  • Can you make a video about the personal pronouns?

    Thank you for the lessons. Keep going!

  • First time I hear this language and its clicks. The sound track is clear. Very interesting.

  • those clicks are just as much a phoneme as any of their other ones dude.
