QUESTION 1
Proverbs were used by African traditional societies to preserve and impart to future
generations valuable moral lessons. List five proverbs from your indigenous language,
and demonstrate their social role and significance. In other words, each of the proverbs
that you have listed, please explain its importance in society. You are also welcome to
use practical example from literary texts such as novels, short stories and so forth.
Proverbs in African traditional societies serve as a means of preserving cultural wisdom,
moral values, and social norms. Here are five proverbs from Zulu, along with their social
roles and significance:
1. "Izandla ziyagezana" (Hands wash each other)
o Importance: This proverb emphasizes the value of mutual assistance and
cooperation. It highlights the belief that individuals should support one
another to achieve common goals and maintain social harmony.
o Practical Example: In a community setting, if a family is struggling to
build a house, neighbors come together to help. This cooperation is not
only practical but also reinforces social bonds and ensures that everyone’s
basic needs are met.
2. "Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu" (A person is a person through other people)
