M.A. (African Languages) / This is a study of the emergent aspects of Zulu proverbs and sayings. The first chapter is devoted to emergent themes in proverbs. That is followed by a chapter on the different strategies that are used in the coining of these proverbs. The sayings are treated in the same manner. It became clear that folklore in African Languages, Zulu in this case, is dynamic. It proves beyond doubt, that proverbs and sayings are not literature of the past; people constantly adapt forms of folklore to suit new circumstances.
