ixhegu (Old Man): intsingiselo yephupha ngokwezithethe (amaXhosa)

Amagama

• IsiNgesi: Old Man
• isiZulu: ixhegu

Amagqabantshintshi

Uphononongo lukaHunter lwango-1936 ngamaMpondo luchaza ukuba izinyanya zibonakala emaphupheni zinjengoko zazinjalo ebomini, nokuba indoda egulayo ethi xa iphupha ibone uyise okanye utatomkhulu iyazi ukuba icelwa ukuba ixhele isilwanyana ngokwesithethe. Uphononongo lukaBigalke ngamaNdlambe lubhala ngendoda eyaphupha uyise ephakathi kwamaxhegu angawaziyo; uyise wayicela ukuba yenzele utatomkhulu wayo, uMgoqi, isithethe, waza wayinika umkhonto eyayiza kuwusebenzisa kuso. UBooi ubhala ngomfazi owaphupha amaxhegu amabini anxibe iingubo ezingwevu, athi ayingooyise bakayisemkhulu wakhe, athi umsebenzi omninzi umlindele. Ezi ziingxelo ezithile, azithethi ukuba onke amaphupha exhegu anentsingiselo enye.

Umxholo: Izinyanya nabangasekhoyo

isiXhosa

UHunter, ebhala ngamaMpondo, uthi izinyanya zibonakala emaphupheni zinjengoko zazinjalo ebomini, yaye indoda egulayo ethi xa iphupha ibone uyise okanye utatomkhulu iyithatha loo nto njengokucelwa ukuba ixhele isilwanyana ngokwesithethe. UBigalke ubhala ngendoda yakwaNdlambe eyacelwa nguyise, owayephakathi kwamaxhegu angaziwayo, ukuba yenzele utatomkhulu wayo isithethe. Umthombo omnye, uBooi, ubhala ngomfazi owaphupha amaxhegu amabini athi angooyise bakayisemkhulu wakhe, athi umsebenzi omninzi umlindele. ^{[1] [2] [3]}

Imibuzo eqhelekileyo

Ngaba ixhegu elibonakala ephupheni sisinyanya?

Kwezi ngxelo, lisenokuba sisinyanya. UHunter, ebhala ngamaMpondo, uthi izinyanya zibonakala emaphupheni zinjengoko zazinjalo ebomini, yaye uBooi ubhala ngomfazi owaphupha amaxhegu amabini athi angooyise bakayisemkhulu wakhe. ^{[1] [3]}

Kuthetha ukuthini ukuphupha utatomkhulu wakho?

UHunter ubhala athi kwindoda egulayo yakwaMpondo, ukubona uyise okanye utatomkhulu ephupheni kwakuthetha ukuba yayicelwa ukuba ixhele isilwanyana ngokwesithethe. UBigalke ubhala ngephupha lendoda yakwaNdlambe apho uyise wayicela ukuba yenzele utatomkhulu wayo isithethe. ^{[1] [2]}

Kuthetha ukuthini xa amaxhegu ethetha nawe ephupheni?

Kwingxelo kaBooi, amaxhegu amabini athi angooyise bakayisemkhulu womphuphi amxelela ukuba mninzi umsebenzi omlindeleyo. Kwingxelo kaBigalke, ixhegu lacela ukuba kwenziwe isithethe. ^{[3] [2]}

Indlela yokucingisisa ngeli phupha

Bhala phantsi ukuba ubone bani okanye ntoni, ukuba benze ntoni, nendlela elivakale ngayo iphupha. Iphupha elinye sisiqalo sokucingisisa, asiloxela ikamva, asiloxilongo, yaye alisosigqibo malunga nobizo. Gcina iinkcukacha kwi-isixhobo sokucingisisa ngephupha ngaphambi kokuba uzilibale.
