Famous for its safari destinations, wildlife, and tourism, South Africa is one of the most exotic and beautiful geographical locations of the world. The Zulu language is spoken by close to 10 million people in Zululand and neighboring regions.

Also unique to South African languages are the click sounds in their consonants, which are not found in any of the other African languages.

Besides the presence of the big five; lion, leopard, rhino, elephants and Cape Buffalo, South Africa has a lot more to offer the world with its vibrant customs, unique art-forms, and delicious cuisine.

Origins:

The Zulu language has different variations and is part of the Nguni/Buntu language group. Oral traditions state that the word Zulu means sky and was the name of the ancestor from whom the royal line descended in 1670. It is the most spoken language of South Africa, with 22% of the population accounting for it.

It is a tonal language signified by ‘click’ sounds and is spoken from Zimbabwe all the way to the Cape. The Zulu language is rich in oral traditions that have been passed down to newer generations by elders. However, since the 1930s there has been a growth in written literature in Zulu as well.
