LOVING MY MOTHER TONGUE.

Today I woke up thinking about something I love,people i`m really in love with the spoken word.Which is poetry in this sense, and I love writing it using ISIXHOSA my mother tongue.I have a problem with the value of this language I think in a few years time, the language will not be published.

Nowadays you find a group of young, black Xhosa speaking children.You find that they communicate in English and fluently, the tone even changes.Not that I have a problem with English,but I think we should really look back.Yes its a fact that English is a universal language,but I think we need to give our languages a platform.It becomes a suprise that a xhosa speaking child doesn`t know(Inkomo). and yet she/he knows that its a cow in english.This issue is serious guys and its food for thought, because we are really loosing it.
