Thesis (DLitt (African Languages))--University of Stellenbosch, 2009. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Specific deceptive messages in Tshivenda were collected and subsequently analysed
according to a methodology which is regularly used in deceptive message production. Forty
deceptive messages were randomly collected from the following persons: teenage males and
females and adult males and females.
The main findings of the study can be summarized as follows:
The respondents gave nine categories of reasons for their deceptive messages. The person
involved in these deceptions are the deceivers (six categories of people) and the persons
who have been deceived (seven categories of people).
Extensive arguments have been utilized to strengthen the deceptive messages i.e. a total of
225 arguments.
Various cues to deception have been extensively used i.e. 12 cues to deception which have
been used 252 times. The four groups of people above have used these cues almost
equally i.e. 61-65 cues per group.
Cultural issues within deception have been given attention and nine different cultural issues
have been found which have been used 46 times.
The success rate of deception is not equal between the groups. The two female groups
have a success rate of 75% while the male groups have a success rate of only 35%.
Various other issues within message production in general have also received attention, i.e.
plans which have been made to deceive as well as the complexity, type and quality of the
plans. The action in deception has also been given attention, specifically message
production and emotional appeals. Of the message effects mention can be made of
relational and emotional effects, competence, appropriateness and effectiveness as well as
politeness. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Spesifieke misleidende of bedrieglike boodskappe in Tshivenda is bymekaar gemaak en

Heelwat argumente is gebruik om die misleidende boodskappe te versterk, d.i. 'n totaal van
225 argumente.
Verskeie aanwysings vir misleiding is ekstensief gebruik, d.i. 12 aanwysings vir misleiding is
