TFDF Getting Started: 1. I See You

Among the tribes of northern Natal in South Africa, the most common greeting, is the expression: Sawu bona. It literally means, "I see you". If you are a member of the tribe, you might reply by saying Sikhona, "I am here". The order of the exchange is important: until you see me, I do not exist.
