Setswana

Postby Struthiomimus » 2010-08-29, 17:51

After watching the whole 1st season of The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency, I have phrases like “Dumela, mma!” and “Dumela, rra!” ringing in my head. I thought I’d check to see if Unilang had a thread, but there’s none for Setswana! So here I am opening this one….

Two good places I’ve come across to get a taste of the language are:

setswana.info/wiki/index.php?title=Course

and

For anyone interested in purchasing a book on Setswana, you can get A Re Bueng Setswana from the NARC. Here's the link:

Wow, I really can't focus on the South African languages. I've been focusing on the West African languages for now.
