Olunye uhlolisiso lwafumanisa ukuba ukuze sitsale ingqalelo yeenjana, kufuneka sithethe nazo ngolwimi lwabantwana.
Abantu abaninzi bathetha nezinja zabo ngendlela efanayo nangabantwana abancinci: ngokucotha nangaphezulu. Sakha izivakalisi ezilula nezifutshane. NgesiNgesi, esi silwanyana, esilingana nolwimi lwabantwana, sibizwa ngokuba yi “canine speech.”
Kodwa ngaba kubalulekile kubahlobo abanemilenze emine ukuba sithetha nabo ngolwimi lwabantwana okanye lwe-canine? Uphando kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo luye lwaqwalasela oku.
Ngokwenza njalo, phakathi kwezinye izinto, abaphandi bafumanisa ukuba abaninzi abantu bathetha nezinja zabo bonke ubudala ngelizwi eliphezulu. Nangona kunjalo, kwiinjana, intsimi yayiphezulu kancinane.
Iinjana Zisabela Ngcono Ekubhibhileni
Kwelinye icala, ithoni ephezulu yelizwi nayo yaba nefuthe elikhulu kwizinja eziselula kwaye yaphembelela ukuziphatha kwazo. Izinja ezindala ziziphatha ngolu "lwimi lwe-canine" alufani nolwimi oluqhelekileyo.
"Inyaniso yokuba izithethi nazo zisebenzisa ulwimi lwe-canine kwizinja ezindala zibonisa ukuba lo mzekelo wolwimi unokuthi ube ngumzamo ozenzekelayo wokuququzelela ukusebenzisana nabaphulaphuli abangabonakaliyo," uphando luphetha. Ngamanye amazwi: mhlawumbi sele sifundile ekusebenzisaneni kwethu neenjana ukuba izinja zisabela kakuhle kulwimi lomntwana. Kwaye ke sizama ukusebenzisa oku kunye nabahlobo bethu abadala abanemilenze emine.
Ngelo xesha, nangona kunjalo, iziphumo zophando zinika ukuqonda kakuhle kubanini bamantshontsho: kuba izinja zenja zinokugxila ngakumbi kuthi ukuba sithetha nabo ngolwimi lweentsana - okanye kunoko, ngolwimi lwezingane.
Izijekulo Zixelela Izinja Ngakumbi Kunamagama
Kwixesha elidlulileyo, ezinye izifundo ziye zabonisa ukuba izijekulo zibaluleke kakhulu xa usebenzisana nezinja. Nanjengamantshontsho amancinci, izinja ziyayiqonda into esifuna ukuyithetha kuzo, umzekelo, ngokukhomba iminwe yethu.
“Uphononongo luxhasa ingcamango yokuba izinja ziye zavelisa kungekuphela nje ukukwazi ukubona izimbo zomzimba kodwa kwanovakalelo olukhethekileyo kwilizwi lomntu, nto leyo ebanceda bazi ukuba bamele baphendule nini na kwinto ethethwayo,” kucacisa iphephancwadi lenzululwazi elithi “The Conversation” “ Iziphumo zezifundo ezibini.
Ekugqibeleni, kufana nezinto ezininzi: ukudibanisa kuphela kubalulekile.
