Hey wena, ngzok'shaya wena comment @Alita killed me 😂...as you said it, I remembered who's kiddos used to say this kwaaaaaaaaaa😂, I was finished sham!
My goodness, you guys had me in stitches the whole time 😆. Code-switching is definitely a thing (WOW🙉) that made me think that if I ever did that, in my head I'd just speak without thinking about having to conform, but it was until I was in the hood some time ago where I could smell a whiff of condemnation and I'm not going to lie, it made me realise that I couldn’t have a full conversation without sneaking in some English here & there, it was even worse when I was told that my Zulu had an accent, like I was cannibalising the language and I thought my Zulu was good 🥴. I still feel insecure when I try to speak Zulu & now Xhosa, OMG, when I speak Vanac in general bc I'd think I'd get persecuted and judged for not being able to speak my mother tongue. Yeah, that can be pretty tough considering something I used to think of as casual, now has a long-term effect on me. I also like how you unpacked that scripture about Paul Yule that ties into this topic. I think more stereotypes would be broken with that perspective. Interesting topic guys!
😂these insecurities are real.
Maybe, her learning the process was for her to train other ladies who choose to travel for work to be handheld through the process. He might not want her to be an au pair. Especially if it’s the desire of her heart to travel. She could travel to get the families or expand her agency. But seek the Kingdom!!
After robot!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Code switching is just acting accordingly in my opinion. It's normal or ought to be. 🤷🏽♀️
I come here and I know am in for a ride. Every episode is just Holy Spirit led. Thank you ladies for starting this podcast.
I am a directional dreaming girlie.Alita, I like this goofy side of you.
Mbali, A town down✌🏽Girl, you just zone out on us. I notice it and just smile.She is clearly the last born.
Yule and me just clicked. I feel right at home. What is the christian term for a 'kindred spirit'?
See, am not biased. Very demure 🤣🤭
Another lovely episode ladies. 🫶
Agreed “acting accordingly” read the room and switch 😂❤
I see the coconut in you never stops, the phone during the session😮

A friend of mine's husband who is a White guy code switches when he speaks to me. It is annoying!!!!! Insulting more than anything... I wonder if they get annoyed when we do it and twang etc. I feel insulted by him.
