The African philosophical conception of personal naming among the Shona speaking people of ZimbabwePenzura, Crymore 01 1900 (has links)
Text in English with summaries in English, Shona and isiXhosa / Bibliography: leaves 140-144 / Personal names carry significant meaning in African cultures. The research critically
argues that among the Shona speaking people of Zimbabwe, given names are not just
mere tags or labels but carry and convey a significant message to the family or society
of the named person. The message is often descriptive of the person named or their
family. It describes the circumstances around the birth of the named or the conditions
of their parents or their country and or their environment. The research further shows
that names derived from socio-cultural experiences may have a plurality of meanings
and also that they may be used to predict or explain something about the person
named, including their parents or environment. Philosophically then, to name is to
confirm, or to negate, and to confer something to the person named or to describe the
circumstances of their birth. / Mazita edungamunhu ane chirevo mutsika nemagariro evanhu vemuAfrica. Donzvo

ngokucacileyo ukuba phakathi kwabantu baseZimbabwe abantetho isisiShona, igama
alinikwayo umntu asinto nje yokuphawula, koko ngumyalezo obalulekileyo omalunga nosapho
okanye uluntu lwalowo uthiywa igama. Lo myalezo ula ngokuchaza ngalowo uthiywayo
okanye usapho lwakhe. Kuchazwa iimeko ezingqonge ukuzalwa kwakhe okanye imeko
yabazali bakhe, isizwe sakhe okanye indalo ebangqongileyo. Uphando lubonakalisa ukuba
amagama asekelwe kumava enkcubeko nezentlalo anganeentsingiselo eziliqela. Ngaphaya
koko, la magma asenokusetyeniziselwa ukuqikelela okanye ukucacisa okuthile malunga nalo
uthiywayo, abazali bakhe okanye indalo ebangqongileyo. Ngokwefilosofi ke ngoko, ukuthiya
igama kukungqina okanye kukuphikisa, kukubethelela inyaniso ethile ngomntu othiywa igama,
ikwakukuchaza iimeko zokuzalwa kwakhe. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / M. Phil. (Philosophy)
