Probably it was undercooked. Maybe it was over-spiced by L.L Zamenhof.<br /><br />Also, when food is forced down one's throat (as deduced from Lawyer Mzinyathi's advocacy), there is a probability of spewing out few seconds after, or moments later. Now I understand that some repulsive reactions toward a particular language could be well-founded. For instance: the historical perspective of Mzinyathi's artistic voice verses the tradition of colonial languages on liberated African soil is splendid to the cause of grief. <br /><br />Being at sympathy with the harsh plight of Zimbabwe, I still believe that the world has come a long way to reconcile with itself, to celebrate the common languages of interest, and yet campaign for the usage / cultural values of the marginalized indigenous languages. <br /><br />Yes... yeah Jabulani, some day we must work on a joint project. It will be great. While I look forward to it, I will pause here and say welldone for the intelligent and matured way you presented your case. Thank you.<br /><br />I also thank Prince and Asandoh for supporting my work. Your sound commentary have meant a lot to me. <br /><br />Many thanks!
