[@tribalmonkey23]

The tricky thing with the Shona language is that over the years, with the mixing of foreign languages etc, it has become heavily diluted with slang, English and most common of all, shortcuts. "Ndogona" is actually supposed to be "Ndinogona" to name but just one of thousands of examples. So I'd understand how tricky it would be to teach someone the language. Great effort though, quickest way to learn is to just listen to your in-laws conversing, you'll learn a lot that way, these Bantu languages sound the same anyway.

[@SheikhaCollette]

So true hey! It’s usually like that (diluted) in most languages. I’m learning though, soon I’ll be fluent 😄

My cousin brother, who travelled from Zimbabwe through, villages, Francis Town to Gaborone on a business trip in the 1990's , said many years ago, Botswana women are beautiful, open minded and had no problem to enter the living room full of Uncles, grandparents even the father and brothers, just wearing a kind of mini skirt and bare breasted topless in front of of everybody. In Zimbabwe it is still impossible for a women /girls to do that 2023. During that time the Zim dollar was stronger than the USA Dollar and basic products were much cheaper in Botswana. Even colgate toothpaste. He would bring cartons of them and sell at 10 times the price on the black market. 1 zim dollar was around 100 Pula.

[@SheikhaCollette]

1 zim dollar, 100pula! Wowwww!!! Those were the days! I remember a lot of people back then used to leave botswana to study in zim 🥳🔥
