The structure and significance of Nothern Sotho traditional songs with specific reference to children.

Thesis (M.A.) (African Languages) --University of Limpopo, 2005. / The study aims at analysing the structure and significance of Northern Sotho traditional
songs with reference to children. This will be achieved by analysing the internal and
external structures of traditional songs using poetic devices. The study will also show the
benefits (significances) children get from those songs. It was discovered that most of the
songs are affected by the introduction of foreign cultures and languages in the
communities and they are sung in many different languages.
The study recommends that Northern Sotho children’s traditional songs be included in the
school curriculum in all grades at both primary and secondary schools.
