   Xhosa is the 2nd most common language in South Africa after Zulu, and if you listened carefully to Makeba sing, you heard “clicks.” Like Zulu & 6 other African tongues, clicks are phonetic elements of Xhosa. And it’s harder to do than it looks. Each click in Xhosa is followed without any pause by a vowel sound. When each type of click is paired with one of six vowel sounds, it makes for a total of 18 click sounds in the Xhosa language.

   Is the world not an amazing place?
