Answer
The second part of the image asks you to read words that demonstrate secankhamisa (elision or contraction). This is when two words are joined, and a vowel is dropped, often marked by an apostrophe.
Here are the examples from the table:
- Makhala agijima becomes Makhal'agijima (Makhala runs)
- Ugudla umgwenya becomes Ugudl'umgwenya (He/She pushes the crocodile)
- Uhambela etulu becomes Uhambel'etulu (He/She walks upwards)
- Ulingisa inyoni becomes Ulingis'inyoni (He/She imitates a bird)
- Ucime umlilo becomes Ucim'umlilo (He/She extinguishes the fire)
