NGIKHONA!
The Zulu language uses prefixes and word stems
to convey meaning, tense and plurality.
![Page 22: Lzim greetings](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052311/557e66b8d8b42a506d8b4f02/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
NGIKHONA! I AM WELL!
Notice the prefix “ngi” for the singular ”I”
![Page 23: Lzim greetings](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052311/557e66b8d8b42a506d8b4f02/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

in this alternative reply to a greeting.

I AM WELL!
NGIYAPHILA!
In compliance with cultural norms of respect, the
singular “I” would generally be used by a young child.
![Page 25: Lzim greetings](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052311/557e66b8d8b42a506d8b4f02/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
SIYAPHILA!
To greet in the plural, the prefix “Si” for “We”
replaces “Ngi”. Culturally, this is the respectful reply
regardless of plurality.
![Page 26: Lzim greetings](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052311/557e66b8d8b42a506d8b4f02/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
WE ARE WELL!
SIYAPHILA!I, and my family
are well!
Just as it is polite to greet in the plural form, it is also
polite to answer a greeting in the plural form.
