One of the greater cultural challenges of entering into a relationship with a woman of largely Xhosa origins was what I might call
non-verbal communication. I couldn't see how this might be overcome. There is still some of it that puzzles me, yet I have learnt more of it by now than I had hoped.
OBSERVATION: Interestingly, it has opened up another world for me. I now find it easier to interpret many people of Xhosa background. (Those of European origins tend to set great store in articulation).
