The aim was to determine the effects of such perceptions on the migrants’ willingness to acquire isiZulu. The study adopted a qualitative phenomenological research approach. Data were collected from one-on-one interviews and thematically analysed. Three categories of isiZulu interlocutor that were preferred by the migrants in this study emerged: (1) older women, (2) younger women, and (3) older men. Key values identified by the migrants include the interlocutors’ friendliness, openness, willingness to interact with the destination-language learners and willingness to guide and help learners in their learning process. The study established that migrants’ perceptions about interlocutors’ personal values have the potential to influence migrants’ willingness to acquire a destination language. Perceptions about interlocutors’ values affect both the direction and processes of language acquisition. Furthermore, the findings showed that migrants’ interest in learning a target language increases when interlocutors’ values are perceived to be desirable by the learners. Thus, perceived values can either promote or hinder interest and effort in acquiring a destination language.","PeriodicalId":42604,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of African Languages","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135010741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(‘Who deserves to be forgiven?’) by NG Sibiya. Our investigation regarding Inkinsela yaseMgungundlovu failed to deliver significant results, therefore our analysis is centred around the other two novels. Our focus is on the ways in which the body parts of female and male characters are used and described in the chosen texts. The article focuses on the following body parts: isandla and izandla (‘hand’ and ‘hands’), amehlo (‘eyes’), ikhanda (‘head’) and ubuso (‘face’). We investigate whether the ways in which female and male characters use their body parts and the ways in which they are described represent male and female characters stereotypically, as well as whether they reveal aspects of power relations between men and women. Our study employs the theoretical framework of gender studies. The results reveal that female characters are depicted as caring and supportive, emotional and beautiful, whereas male characters are depicted as courageous, in control of their emotions, aggressive and dangerous.","PeriodicalId":42604,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of African Languages","volume":"354 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135010746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From an African perspective, the names used to label the environment and phenomena guide us on how we should perceive them. For example, in isiXhosa, a healer is called ugqirha, which means they personify ubugqi (the power to perform unexplainable deeds); the concept will be explored to illustrate the ethic behind the sacredness with which healing knowledge is treated. A healer, therefore, embodies the ability to act beyond comprehension. This brings the ethos of Western pedagogy into question. If, through language, we learn that a phenomenon such as healing is beyond comprehension, how then should healing be part of the curriculum? The article concludes that sacred knowledges should be handled ethically and that the ethics of dissemination of sacred knowledge such as ubugqirha are often embedded in their naming.","PeriodicalId":42604,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of African Languages","volume":"235 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135010744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Future-time markers in expressing English future time by Sesotho L1 speakers 将来时标记语在英语将来时表达中的作用

The lack of consistency is influenced by speakers’ intentions, so these various ways of marking future time in English pose a challenge to second-language (L2) learners. Therefore, this article investigates first-language (L1) Sesotho speakers’ ways of expressing English future time within the basic linguistic theory framework. It further seeks to identify factors influencing the students’ formation of future-time expressions. In this qualitative study, data was collected through 30 written compositions by third-year Linguistics students at the National University of Lesotho. The study reveals that L1 Sesotho speakers mark English future time through will and shall. They also use the phrasal markers such as want to, have to, hope to, be going to, be supposed to, be about to, will + be + PROGRESSIVE, will + have + PERFECT PARTICIPLE and will + have + been, which they use appropriately. Would + be, would + progressive, would + have + PERFECT PARTICIPLE are also used but incorrectly. The article further demonstrates that they use would erroneously to express English future time. In addition, Sesotho, by virtue of having equivalents of some of these markers, influenced the students’ formation of future-time expressions. Therefore, L1 interference plays a great part in L2 learning. The study concludes that the use of will is more dominant than shall because even British English, which was known for the common use of shall has started to shift and to lose this distinction like American English has done.","PeriodicalId":42604,"journal":{"name":"South African Journal of African Languages","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135010738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
