My uncle (ma's brother) sent me an email today. Now you might be wondering about the title of the post. Well the email was written in Ndebele. It took me about 6 mins to plow through 6 or so sentences & my bro 15 mins. My sis was in between. When I sent back a reply it was in a happy mix of Ndenglish. More English than Ndebele. I never actually learnt how to read and write it properly since I lived in a Shona speaking area and learnt that instead. Sibs studied the language so they have no excuses. As such we are language challenged. image extraced from http://www.debttailor.com/articles.shtml
