Hi guys!
This is great fun!! The click-sound is sounding sooooooooooo incredibly stupid when I am trying to pronounce it!! I am glad you guys cannot hear my clumsy practice hahaha!
So come on, learn us some more words with the click-sound to improve my pronounciation. Preferably words that have to do with soccer of course!
Byebye, once more: Really enjoyed it!

I’ve just started playing soccer with some of the locals here in Sea Point, Cape Town.
Words I have come across so far are.
Ishibobo: to pass the ball inbetween a players legs
Woza: Come
Anybody like to name some more that players use on the pitch?
