I am not offended by "mlungu". In fact, I believe you should have the right to say what you want. Whatever happened to "freedom of speech"?

@soundslikedeathvox - SIr/madam - you are wrong - "Mulungu" does not mean "White scum that floats on top of the sea in rough weather" - it is more a descriptive word referring to people of european ancestry and a typically higher economic bracket. In fact some people even ascribe it a magical quality - as if these people had special magical powers. But I agree with you that this is a commentary on dignity. Having said that - there are chancers too.

It's a joke guys.

About Dictioneries, again...another Fable..I have since gotten hold of two Different Zulu-English Dictioneries...such a defination does not exist in them....bothe in fact do not explain the origins of the word explicitly like I did, one just does not do it at all and the other one tries but comes short to giving a full picture

A) Assuming that the woman is not from KZN, or is a Model C...I would refrain from taking her seriously in future if I were you. Gauteng Zulus and Model C Zulus know very little about Zulu the Language and the Culture.
By the way, you need not take my word for it, last I checked there are few White Zulu Professors in UKZN and UNIZULU....might help if you confirm my explanation with them.

@imbabazane Really.... Wow maybe you had better re-educate the entire nation as one of the Zulu women I work with tells me that Mlungu is a racist term, it amount to me using the term amkwenakwena. Btw Mlungu is listen in dictionataries as being white scum of the sea. So if you call me mlhungu I will 1-ignore you flat or 2-refer to you in your mother tongue as above.

@soundslikedeathvox Mlungu = White Scumm......
That is just Bullshit that has been repeatedly going around....I wonder where it comes from.
The Term "uMlungu" is a corruption of an earlier term "uMlumbi", which is archaic Zulu for a "Magician" (not "Wizard" = uMthakathi) . The term emanated from the Fact that Zulus considered White Medicine, Technology and Weaponry to be works of Magic.
The "sea scum" definition is pure Hocum, stop spreading untruths

@MrVusi "Mlungu" is black people's term for white people? So it's not considered racist? Can you remember what white people's term for black people was (still is)? -Ka**er-. Yes, *=f. Why is this term considered racist then? Please do YOUR research before making statements that are INCORRECT and offensive.

mlungu = white scum that floats on top of the sea in rough weather.
calling white people mlungu = racist
just like calling african people n.... or k.... = racist
im kinda offended that sabc would air this kind of thing.
the humour however is not racist and makes an interesting statement of african south africans having more dignity and self respect than they're made out to. but pulling seriously derogatory terms out REPETITIVELY on public television is messed up.
