"Forms of addresses, greetings and gestures
Task 1.
Introduction
Well at the moment I am in Gauteng, Pretoria Sunnyside, the city of Tswane which is a
formal place, and the date of this observation was on the 9th of May 2021 in which I decided
to walk around and had a mandate to greet each and every person I came across with in
order to find out a little about their language and how they greet. I also listened intensively
to how people greet each other in taxis, malls and shops.
1. Amongst the people I interacted with was Mpho (female) together her friends and the way
they greet one another "chom" or "chomi) the word "chom" is a slang word of "Chomi" is a
Xitsonga/ siTswane word which means friend they were Tswane speaking or rather culture
and they use the word "Chom" despite being from a different cultures.
2. Secondly was Thabo originally from Joburg. This can be heard mostly in JHB – Hola Seven. A
slang way of saying What's up – used predominantly by the Youth.
3. 3rdly was Karabo Heita – A cheerful, slang form of “Hello” used most often by Urban/Rural
South Africans.
4. The Forth was Moses and usually would say: Fede – which is a South African township
greeting meaning “Hello, how are you?
5. The 5th person I interviewed was Jabulani - form of greeting was "Howzit" – Translating as
hello or how are you doing, this is a proudly South African way of greeting someone.
6. And the last person was Shaquille and he is colored. He would say "Aweh" which is a South
African slang word used mainly in the coloured community to acknowledge or greet someone.
Some guys would address each other when Greeting one another by "Dintsa-ng" or "Desvar".
"Dintsang" is mostly used by guys and is a street language meaning "how are you" and
"Desvar" is an Afrikaans word with a direct translation of "Is true", however, is rather used as a
steet language which mean "I amm fine" or simply acknowledging a greeting.

I have also seen some youth who would create their own way of gesture greetings which basically is
a use of hand signals or signs which are followed by a hand shake and sometimes spiced by a "dap"
