| dc.description.abstract | This book is an attempt to investigate some of the pertinent research trends in the indigenous languages of South Africa. It covers aspects ranging from literature, language education, translation, folklore, linguistics, artificial intelligence and multilingualism, music, and creative media. The editors believe that the book lays a firm foundation and inspiration for the publication of more books that will include more of the official languages of South Africa. It would be a delight to see languages such as Sesotho, Setswana, Tshivenda, Xitsonga, isiXhosa, Siswati, and even Afrikaans coming to the party. | |
