SECTION B: Written questions
Question 1
a)
As a South African rural born child from Limpopo, only knowing Tshivenda and a bit
of English, where I attended a government public school, moving to the city was very
difficult because of the language barriers. I only know my mother tongue language is
a bit city. I remember I wanted to use a public transport to go to the University at
Bree Johannesburg. I could not speak Zulu or any other language beside my tongue
language. I can still recall the pressure I felt that day, the embarrassment of a black
child being called a foreigner is my own home land just because I was not bilingual.
This taught me a lesson that I needed to adapt quickly as the minority of Zulu culture
was the preferred language. I was stubborn at first, but I realise that for me to get
assistance, I needed to know other languages and cultures too. South African has 11
official languages and if one only knows their mother tongue languages you are
considered as a foreigner and its difficult to get assistance if you are not multilingual.
Another example was when I applied for a call centre job, during the interview, I was
asked besides my home language and English, if I can speak and write other
language. Unfortunate, I could not and was told the job is not mine because I am not
bilingual, and I should start learning Zulu. I lost a job before I can even start due to
the minority in Johannesburg speaking Zulu and other languages.
b) Definitely Not, it is not easy for babies to learn languages from watching
television. I have noticed with my two kids. My first-born daughter loves TV,
and her learning to speak has taken a lot of time, actually the TV is very
addictive to her and she is already turning 6.
She is still struggling to make a proper sentence but is able to memorise a
song or story on TV which has made her to be lazier. The little one hate TV
and she is not even 2 but her speech is proper and easy to hear what she is
saying.
I think TV corrupts the mind and makes the child lazy to think out of the box,
they more focus on the colours and repetitions of cartoon which some of the
are not even educational.
Also, the reasons they cannot also learn from TV is that babies are on a
different level of cognitive processing and requires language which is different
