If you in Gauteng province the Sesotho language is also common

[@josephbuckley4902]

Thank you. I plan on going early next year as a solo senior and I got a lot of good advice from this

[@yanavida]

So happy this helped! I find ppl to be quite friendly there so wishing you a great trip!!

[@user-lg2ov9hq3n]

They are run by the Zulu😊😊 who told you so, Gauteng is big not only Zulu owned taxis ,
Today is Saturday there is no loadshing👍👍

[@truesouth6532]

Is it not a known stereotype that taxis are synonymous with Zulus?
Is it a cool thing to be associated with taxis now?

[@W.GlobalAffairs]

Come back already coz SA is the place for you. Stay safe and sweet as you are❤❤

[@CHAKA-ng8fr]

If you want a real Zulu experience go to Durban,that's the home of everything Zulu

[@yanavida]

Oooo ok thanks!

[@M3OverSeas]

Thanks! This was very helpful😊❤

[@yanavida]

I'm so glad! 🤍

[@sibusisojele8286]

A black American man from Chicago opened a cocktail lounge in Johannesburg, called “Zurii lounge”

[@yanavida]

Really? I’ll have to check it out next time!

[@ECHSBACHS]

Thanks for the Load Shedding Info

[@yanavida]

[@peekaymadaiz21]

Umuhle ntokazi ❤

[@yanavida]

Thank you ❤

[@sabelozulu5161]

Ill teach you isiZulu language 😂😂😂

[@yanavida]

lmao omg pls! YEBOOOO

[@sabelozulu5161]

@yanavida ok, first lesson, when pronouncing most of indigenous SA languages, and most other African languages always remember the following:
The vowels are pronounced as follows:
A = ah!
E = eh!
I = E
O = oh
U = ooh!

[@sabelozulu5161]

To pronounce clicks;
C - press the front tip of your tongue
X - sound it at the back side of your tongue, left side is easier
Q- hit the top/ ceiling of your mountain with your tongue
K- force out the k with the tongue hitting the top of your mouth

[@sabelozulu5161]

Still on clicks:
Ch- sound the c lighter, like you're breathing while saying it
Xh- sound the x lighter, also like you are breathing
Qh- same others, sound q lighter
Kh- sound like English K
Ph- sounds like English P
P- press your lips and force the air out
G- sounds like g for go
Bh- sounds like English B
B- sound very light, like you are opening your mouth while saying B
D- is the same as D

[@blobby.the.fat.dinosaur]

Also yall... there hasn't been loadshedding in months! I hope the government keeps it so for the next few years

[@user-lg2ov9hq3n]

True SA weather is unpredictable but its summer just need just one wrarm jacket for in case😮😮

[@yanavida]

Cape Town was were I was saying you need a light sweater or something. it gets windy at night and by the water

[@tburton2877]

Nice Charger.....😊

[@muzimbulase]

Umuhle Yana, you look like my wife

[@blobby.the.fat.dinosaur]

💀💀💀

[@blobby.the.fat.dinosaur]

If you see this comment yall, please don't go around greeting everyone in zulu especially if you're going to Cape Town side because there are quite alot of languages and everyone there does understand english so...
you can just imagine if you talk to a local with the wrong African language... 😅

[@yanavida]

@@blobby.the.fat.dinosaur 100%. Everyone isn’t Zulu! I’d stick to English and then If someone mentions that they are Zulu - then u can speak it.

[@Kay-jz9wt]

As a woman, how was going out at night? did you use uber? was it safe?

[@yanavida]

I felt pretty safe. No experiences of bad/weird Uber drivers. We stayed in most of the well known areas and we didn’t party in downtown Joburg.

[@blobby.the.fat.dinosaur]

Where are you gonna find places that don't take card 💀💀💀
(Edit: In Cape Town Sorry... in Joburg you might need cash)

[@vuyokazimthethwa]

lol Joburg is dry, never humid

[@yanavida]

Hm maybe because it rained so it was humid

[@hopes9451]

Sawubona Sis Yana!Umuhle Yoh! & you could quite easily pass as one of us.❤🎉
