Abstract:
This article proposes how to infuse grammatical features, isiZulu moods in particular, into the creative writing processes at Senior and Further Education and Training (SP and FET) Phases. IsiZulu moods are grammatical features that are underused by teachers in the teaching of isiZulu creative writing. This study would help isiZulu teachers to acquire adequate language teaching skills and techniques, thus learning the proper application of grammatical feature. IsiZulu teachers would shift from teaching grammar as a standalone to communicative language teaching. The main method of investigation

Abstract:
This paper explores non-mother tongue isiZulu pre-service teachers’ views and experiences on learning isiZulu as a second language. The study uses qualitative study methods and it operates under the interpretivist paradigm. Semi-structured interviews are used with 20 students. Among findings are issues that relate to the usefulness of learning isiZulu as a compulsory module, good student attitude and academic performance. One of the recommendations is that there is a need to separate students studying isiZulu for the first time and those who are not studying it for the first time.

Abstract:
This paper provides an overview of the intellectualization of the indigenous languages of South Africa through a translation of academic texts and using isiZulu by way of example. The intellectualization of a language means the advancement, upliftment, and enrichment of a language, enabling it for use in different domains as a language of research, science and technology, and teaching and learning. The point of departure for this paper is the value of translation as an enabler for the intellectualization of languages. Using Nord’s functionalist theory, this paper seeks to provide an overview o

Abstract:
Abstract Translating from a developed language like English into an African language may be daunting. This is because African languages like isiNdebele and isiZulu may lack some standardised terminologies for specific terms of the developed source language. When African language translators face complicated terms from a source language that do not have appropriate equivalents, they resort to transliteration as a term-creation strategy. This paper aims to compare the extent to which translators of both Ikhambo Elide Eliya Ekululekweni (isiNdebele) and Uhambo Olude Oluya Enkululekweni (isiZulu)

Abstract:
South Africa faces numerous challenges in healthcare, with the result that communities in many rural provinces are grossly underserved. These problems are compounded when doctors are unable to communicate with their patients. IsiZulu is spoken by most people in KwaZulu-Natal. Older and rural patients often present as monolingual isiZulu speakers. The need and ability to speak an indigenous language is emphasised in communication, identified as a core competency for doctors. The benefits of language-concordant health care have been documented, and policies at national, regional and institutiona

The discovery of gold in the Witwatersrand area in 1886 led to the migration of black people from all over South Africa, as well as from neighbouring countries, to work in the mines in South Africa for a specific period of time. In the mines, they eventually intermingled with the people from the townships closer to the mines. Their languages soon had a changing effect on the language that the people spoke in many townships, such as Duduza.

The Met Office has investigated the use of natural language generation (NLG) technologies to streamline the production of weather forecasts. Their approach would be of great benefit in South Africa because there is no fast and large scale producer, automated or otherwise, of textual weather summaries for Nguni languages. This is because of, among other things, the complexity of Nguni languages. The structure of these languages is very different from Indo-European languages, and therefore we cannot reuse existing technologies that were developed for the latter group.
