KhoeKhoegowab Lesson No:4

Ойын-сауық

KhoeKhoegowab is the most populous and widespread of the Khoisan languages. It belongs to the Khoe language family, and is spoken in Namibia, Botswana, and South Africa by the Namaqua, Damara, and Haillom, as well as smaller ethnic groups such as the #Khomani. The name for Nama speakers, Khoekhoen, is from the Nama word khoe "person", with reduplication and the suffix -n to indicate the plural.
Thusnelda Dausas and Gabriel /Khoeseb are two young teachers from the primery school, a small school vilage called Baumgartsbrunn in Namibia.

    Also, note that Zulu term mentioned has the root -ncan-, with the ka- being a prefix. The equivalent Xhosa term is kancinci with two prenasalised dental clicks, but the Sotho root, for example, is -nyan-. I don't know what the reconstructed proto-bantu form of this cognate - perhaps it only applies to Southern Bantu Languages, but Prot-Bantu is not regarded to contain clicks - these arise only in Bantu languages with have had contact with Khoi-San languages at some point in their genesis...

    Are their clicks all only at the beginning of a word.

    [cont.].. Still further, this sound shift from 'c' to 't' can most likely be found in the mid-point sound in Ede-Yorubaa.. The term die means small or little, and 'd' is pronounced 'dj', 'dya', 'dz', 'tya', etc. I say mid-point because these aforementioned sounds fall between the click 'c' and the hardened 't'. More evidence of this is in the Hebrew adwn [so-called 'adon'] is properly pronounced idana, which is actually itana [KiKuma] or itanna [Ede-Yorubaa], meaning 'brightness of the Sun'..

    if there's a space either side of / it's punctuation. if not, it's a click consonant. hope that helps. h.

    Shikhamana.. I have been doing a Study of both Ki-Kuma [A.Egyptian] and A.Hebrew languages. It should be Known that the foundation of these two languages were Ba-Ntu and San-Khoe. In doing this Study, I have found clear evidences of 'clicks' in both the Ki-Kuma and A.Hebrew languages. If you would be willing to do so, I humbly ask for your advice and direction on the pronunciation, root-stems and proper usage of some of the terms I Am translating. Thanks in advance..

    [ Is this a study using the comparative method? From where do you draw the pronunciation data regarding the click? ].. My base method is comparative, and also recognizing sound shifts over time. For instance, in qatan.. q->k, as 'koran' and qur'an. The letter 't' is an evolution from the alveolar-dental sounds, which hardened over time..e.g. itana in KiKuma [A.Egyptian] is mchana in KiSwahili. This is the same for the Hebrew 'tet', making qtn into qcn..

    Does it get confusing when "/" is both a vowel and punctuation? As in the final example?

  • @TStheEducator

    Sawubona.. and I indeed have. Hebrew, so called, is not 'semitic'. It is purely Afrakan, mainly BaNtu. For example.. qtn [qatan/katan- 'small'] is actually pronounced kacane, from the isiZulu kancane. The 'c' is a aveolar-dental click.. which is the sound the teacher makes in saying 'I'm sorry' at time 0:03 [/ubate re]. Another, though not a click, is gbwrh ['gaborah'- 'strong']. This is actually agbara/igbora in Ede-Yorubaa, where the -gb- combination is guttural. Let Me Know if this helps..

    Why'd you even post a comment about my comments? Did it hurt your feelings so much that you had to post about it? That's pretty childish "Imralu" on your part. If I'm proud of my people, I'll say whatever I want.
