Place: In a home in the Sinyameni part of Mhlotsheni Location, Mount Frere District
Storyteller: A Bhaca woman / She is about 35 years old
Audience: Eight women, ten children, all Bhaca A Note about the Bhaca Dialect: As was the case with the stories related in Cele (1S-908 to 1055), this is not a pure Bhaca dialect. While the areas studied are considered the most traditional of the Bhaca areas in Mount Frere District, most of the people speak Xhosa. Bhaca linguistic elements remain in the speech, but the language is very close to Xhosa. This thsefula dialect is still spoken by many Bhaca, especially those who are older, so that some of the stories in this section are rendered in the pure dialect, but most are mixed.
