learning Xhosa!

Since a few days now we've really been tying to learn Xhosa. (Take a look at my favourite Xhosa poem on the picture!) Yesterday, we practiced the clicks the whole way back from school. My tongue was quite exhausted in the end! There are 3 different clicks in Xhosa, marked by the letters X, Q and C. The C is easy and by now, I manage to pronounce the X as well, but it's the Q that gives me the most trouble. Today we practiced reading Xhosa - we read Xhosa poems to some of the students and they corrected us. It was really amusing for them to listen to us! Today I borrowed 2 books in Xhosa - one book of poetry and the other of prose. In addition to that, I've borrowed an English-Xhosa-Afrikaans dictionary. Too bad I cannot take them home with me..
I've just spoke to one of the Xhosa teachers at school and asked her if we could visit one of her classes this week. So, we are going on Thursday!
I really hope to master the clicks by the time I come back!
