S.A TRIVIA QUESTION
The language of Tsonga is mainly spoken by:
A – Zulu B – Afrikaners C – Shangaan

Answer: C – Shangaan
The language of Tsonga is mainly spoken throughout southern Africa by the Shangaan - Tsonga culture. The main area where Tsonga is spoken is in Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Swaziland and South Africa. Tsonga is a part of Bantu branch when it comes to the Niger-Congo languages. The speakers of this language are often referred to as Shangaans, but the Tsongas say this is incorrect as that term should only be used for the Tsonga people who are living in Mozambique. Even though the Tsonga speakers are spread throughout Southern Africa, the majority of them live in the Limpopo province in South Africa.

TIP OF THE DAY
11 Essential Tips for Mowing the Lawn by Kelly Burke

Mow once a week to encourage vigorous growth except during an extended drought and times of stress.

Remove no more than one-third of the leaf blade to prevent scalping and weak, damaged plants.

Mow in different directions to prevent wear patterns and encourage upright growth.

Establish a height of cut that allows the grass to thrive and store energy and water reserves.

Maintain sharp blades, torn ragged tips turn brown, look unsightly and can be vectors for disease.

Mow when grass is dry to reduce clumping, improve mulching and avoid potentially spreading disease over the lawn.

If clumping occurs, disperse clumps with a rake or blower.

If you prefer to collect your clippings, start a compost pile. Use compost as a lawn top-dressing.

Walk the yard first, pick up any sticks, toys, or debris.

Wear eye protection and sensible shoes.

String trim first, then finish with the mower for a clean look.
