, 1. Two cohesive devices (2 answers provided)
One cohesive device used in Text A is repetition cohesion. Repetition cohesion
happens when important words or related words are repeated in a text to connect
ideas and keep the topic clear (ENG2601/501, 2021). In Text A, words such as
translation, isiZulu, English, culture, language and meaning are repeated throughout
the article. This repetition keeps the reader focused on the main issue, which is how
translation between isiZulu and English affects cultural meaning and identity. It also
strengthens the link between Gumede’s research and the wider issue of language
power in South Africa (Dlamini, 2025).
