SAWUBONA | Is more than just a Zulu greeting

Sawubona, is an ancient isiZulu greeting which means: We see you. It is equivalent to Hello
So when we meet and greet I would say “sawubona” [we see you], and you will respond by saying “yebo, sawubona” [yes, we see you too].
Why do we say “We” see you even when it is just me, a single individual person greeting you and why do you respond by the same when it is just you, a single individual person greeting me?
In Zulu tradition, the “I” is connection to an ancient lineage of ancestors which my ancestors are always with me.
So when I meet you, not only is myself meeting you, but my ancestors whom I’m representing meet you too.
So sawubona [we see you] means me and my ancestors see you, and your response means you and your ancestors sees me too.
But sawubona is more than just a greeting, it also means: We see each other, we acknowledge each other, we recognize each other. Says (R. Mamabolo)
