• “Mamma” - Aanhalingstekens: Wys dat die woord vir die spreker vreemd is; sy het nie ‘n konneksie met “mamma” nie (Quotation marks: Show
that the word is foreign to the speaker; she does not have a connection with "mamma")
I cannot call you mother • Inversie: omgekeerde
“Mamma” kan ek nie sê nie woordorde – plaas die klem
op “mamma” (Inversion:

“karma” (thinks back to how her life began: It was an unfortunate beginning; bad "karma")
Retrospek (retrospect) : kyk terug na voor haar geboorte (looking back at before her birth)

3. van wik en weeg Alliterasie: beklemtoon die noodlot (fate) – dit was ‘n ongelukkige
besluit van die engel (it was an unfortunate decision of the angel)
2) Die spreker herleef die ongelukkige begin van haar lewe as fetus in haar ma se baarmoeder (speaker
remembers the unfortunate beginning of her life as a fetus in her mother's womb)
Met geweld (violently) - Dit was miskien ‘n ongewenste swangerskap (unwanted pregnancy) (Unfortunate experiences)
Konflik tussen “ek” en “jy”: Ek = ek-spreker; die perspektief is die kind se persepsies; ongelukkige ervarings.
Shoved me into your womb Jy = die ma; die meisie voel geen konneksie met haar nie
4. 2 afgeskop in jou in Alleenplasing:
• Daar is nie ‘n konneksie (connection) tussen die meisie en haar ma nie
• Die spreker is alleen, selfs as ongebore baba (even as an unborn baby)
• Die ma wou haar nooit hê nie (never wanted her)
3) Die spreker is bewus daarvan dat haar ma haar nie wou hê nie, selfs al weet sy dat ‘n mens nie jou tyd in die
baarmoeder kan onthou nie (speaker is aware that her mother did not want her, even though she knows that one
cannot remember one's time in the womb)

hede nie. (speaker has always been aware that her mother never wanted her, not as a baby, nor in the present)
Kontras met onmoontlik (impossible) : Dit is moontlik (possible)
But I knew then Herhaling: Sy was nog altyd daarvan bewus (Repeat: She has
Verlede tyd
8. maar ek het geweet always been aware of it)
↳ Dubbelpunt: Kondig die slotgedagte aan; verduideliking van wat sy
What I know now
9. wat ek nou weet: weet (Announce the closing thought; explanation of what she knows)
Teenwoordige tyd (present tense) : as jongmens wat weet wat om haar
aangaan (as a young person who knows what is going on around her)
5) Slotgedagte: fokus op die meisie se ongelukkige realiteit – die verhouding tussen haar en haar ma is problematies;
daar is geen intieme konneksie tussen hulle nie (Final thought: focus on the girl's unhappy reality - the relationship
between her and her mother is problematic; there is no intimate connection between them)
When you look at me
