Ezo lwimi sisiXhosa, isiSutho, kwakunye noLwimi loMjeku.”

Uqhube wathi, “Iilwimi zethu singamaAfrika zisenza simanyane kuba sithi sesithetha iilwimi zethu ezahlukileyo, kodwa sikwazi ukuvana, ngoba iilwimi zamaAfrika ziyathungelana.”
Kwakulo msitho, intloko yeSebe yeeLwimi zesiNtu, uGqirhalwazi Yolisa Madolo, naye wazise incwadi yamabali amafutshane ayibhale noNompumelelo Magwane-Mvandaba, uNoxolo Mildred Ngumbela noLulama Dyasi esihloko sithi ‘Imfihlo isebhokisini”, logama umxelengi kwiSebe loPhicotho lobuGcisa neNtlalo, uNksz. Nonceba Mabena ubhengeze eyakhe yamabali amafutshane nemibongo, esihloko sithi ‘Isikhwebu’
