    #English and Americans (non indigenous) are not known for being multilingual.

    1) #French: Mais petre tu parlez un petit pois de fraincais. Non?
    2) #German: Sprechen zie deutch?
    3) #Mandarin: Ni Hao (Hello)
    4) #Zulu: Jumbo (Hello)
    etc.

    My Tibetan and Sanskrit are probably even worse. (a few mantra)

    We elderlings have learned a little here and there and still end up barely able to remember our native tonguing

  2. Los zulúes realizaban comidas colectivas para honrar a los antepasados. En estas, cada uno comía por orden jerárquico y con su propia cuchara. Esta, de finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX, era una de ellas.🏛️Museo del muelle Branly - Jacques Chirac📷Hughes Dubois #zulu #herramientas #tools

  6. "Mbube" is a #popularSong originally written and composed by the #SouthAfricanMusician #SolomonLinda in 1939. It was first published in South Africa and made its way to the United States a decade later. In 1961, #theTokens adapted the melody and added English lyrics to produce "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", lending the song the name by which it is best known today. A #Zulu migrant worker, Linda led the #aCapella group the Evening Birds. In 1939, without rehearsal.

  16. I didn't have the pleasure of knowing Freddie personally, yet I have a distinct feeling that he would have absolutely adored this. It's such a creative and well-done take on the song that both honors the soul of the original and imbues a unique beauty upon it. Bravo!

  22. A group of Zulu performers at a safari park near Durban share a vibrant and expressive dance, inspired by ceremonies that may be seen at Zulu weddings. While the performance is tailored for visitors, it offers a glimpse into the rhythm, energy, and storytelling that are integral to Zulu cultural celebrations.

  23. #AkiraTozawa hit a #hurricanrana on #CarmeloHayes

    Will there be more #rana?

    And there was, since Akira tried again for a rana but Carmelo seemed to counter, until Melo buckled into the corner while Tozawa completed the now unpaused rana.

    Then it was Melo's turn to perform a well rounded rana on Akira.

    #Zulu below:

    #Akiratozawa hit a #hurcanrana on #carmelophayes

    Ngabe kuzoba khona okunye #rana?

    Futhi kwakukhona, ngoba u-Akira wazama futhi ngeRana kodwa uCarmelo wabonakala sengathi uphikisane, kuze kube yilapho uMelo angena ekhoneni ngenkathi uTazawa eqeda manje iRana engafakwanga manje.

    Kwabe sekuphenduke ithuba likaMelo ukwenza iRana eliyindilinga kahle e-Akira.

  24. Every #potter, every #craftsperson, is a #culturalpreservationist. When I took my first #pottery class 12 years ago, I had no idea what I was participating in, how ancient and huge it was.

    A South African potter named #JabulileNala taught me how to coil build. She comes from a long line of #Zulu potters with a tradition extending back at least 2,000 years.

    Biseat Yakwal took this #filmphoto of me teaching a coil building workshop in Gainesville, FL in 2023.

  25. Great African empires

    In this episode of “Lumumba’s Africa,” Professor PLO #Lumumba explores the #historical significance of the #African continent, which was the cradle of some of the greatest #empires, including the #Egyptian, #Songhai, #Benin, and #Yoruba empires, among others across the Mother Continent. While these #civilizations flourished, they suffered devastating impacts due to slavery and #colonization. However, some of these #kingdoms, such as the #Zulu Kingdom, #Oyo, and the #Waganda Kingdom, still exist today. The professor #emphasizes the importance of keeping the #legacies of #African kingdoms alive through discussion and #storytelling, as this will help unite Africa and contribute to a brighter future for the continent.

  26. Are you ready for the #Devoxx conference next week? Join @rdehuyss and me for a workshop on Monday where we will schedule "virtual" beer brewing tasks with #JobRunr, @pi4j, #Azul #Zulu, and #RaspberryPi! The test setup is ready, and the code is on GitHub waiting for you. Now we only need the "conference gods" not to mess up our demo ;-) And yes, this setup is suffering from the #TooManyWiresException.
