Abba Ayalew Amlak... Bongani iNkosi 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Language is a tool to try assist the spirits to communicate.

We're too obsessed with the surface than the depth.

[tshegosmaja]

The tsotsitaal breakdown by Abba was gold 🏌️‍♂️

[thabisograememahungela]

"Indigenous language is my spirit trying to reach out to you in communication." - Abba Ayalew Amlak wow! Like that's it, that's truly all there is to. Thank you for that simplified definition. I'll take that with me.

Baba uNdaba was lowkey dropping gems as well . What a lovely gathering, what a lovely podcast in essence.

Lebo Mashile will always be a super woman in my eyes. What a woman!

[mac-dd]

Normally they be saying Abba is high he must leave intsango but there is truly depth to this mans thinking lets stop lying 😲✊

[sphiwemaseko]

I'm crying because nature has shown me this truth

[KeneiloeP]

Wish more South African would see this! POWERFUL conversation !

[solutionengineer]

Collectively you were authentic communicators; no ego whatsoever! The learning is sustained!! I salute you all!!

[selaeloyolendah]

Yoh I can never forget how this episode made me feel, the power of black conversations!!!

[MorganKhahlisi]

As a language practitioner. We need to have these conversations.

[SlotsPunting]

Everytime I listen to Abba or Maponga, I have to rewind to fully grasp their thoughts.

[_artman]

Yo, the "Makoti" origin f'd me

[NduduzoNgcobo]

You know I love Stogie in this dialogue. Stogie represents that (and apologies I come across badly Stogie) innocent, naive voice in this engagement because he introduces disruptive narratives that call for interrogation and further breakdown.

I love all panelists, Stogie in this instance represents quiet a large pool of people who would appreciate these answers.

Loving this.

[wandilenonkwali]

These types of conversations make me realize that there is a lot that I need to learn

[essentrikality]

Yoh this episode takes all the cups😭😭we need the full uncut unedited version

[SlotsPunting]

I've always said, Stogie will always be misunderstood, because he writes above our heads.. Most of us aren't in tune with

[LesegoPhalane]

Abba Amlak you are very rich with African history and information🔥🔥🔥

[carmenmoitoi]

This conservation is like food to the soul. I spent my early years not speaking vernac. I made sure my son speaks Setswana from day one. And now we're struggling to get him to know Ndebele, he hates not understanding it, which makes me so proud. I'm glad he's interested.

[EsihleMboyana]

That was the best episode I've seen so far! Dang!❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥
