Listen: KZN kids talk the talk on International Mother Language Day
Updated | By Stacey & J Sbu
We heard the cutest voices in various languages!
Earlier this week, we celebrated International Mother Language Day by getting the kids of KZN to send in voice notes.
Aunty Stacey and Uncle J Sbu were in for a day filled with cuteness as we heard isiZulu, Afrikaans, Tamil, and much more.
A few of the adorable little ones took time out to let us know what languages they hope to learn one day.
You can listen to the podcast here:
The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) says the day has been observed throughout the world since the year 2000.
According to the United Nations, about 40% of the global population does not have access to an education in the language they speak/understand.
In a way to show their commitment towards understanding the importance of mother languages, UNESCO joined in on observing the day.
