Pretoria Tswana, or Pretoria Sotho (affectionately called Sepitori by its speakers), is the urban lingua franca of Pretoria and the Tshwane metropolitan area in South Africa. It is a combination of Tswana and Northern Sotho (Sotho), with influences from Tsotsitaal, Afrikaans and other black South African languages. It is spoken by most black residents of all ages and levels of education in Tshwane. Though it is most commonly used in informal situations, it is also used in schools and at political events in which people have different language backgrounds. Standard Sotho and Northern Sotho (Sepedi) are not commonly used in schools except in Tswana and Northern Sotho lessons. Pretoria Tswana (or Sepitori) is mutually intelligible with Tswana and Northern Sotho. It is a very dynamic and fluid language that changes over time. Words such as stelle, stocko and wadijaja are new concepts used and did not exist a decade ago. Another interesting feature is that different part of the city of Tshwane have different variations of the language. The Garankuwa , Mabopane , Soshanguve, Atteridgeville and Hammanskraal regions, which are dominated by Tswana-speakers, speak a form that is closely linked to the Setswana. The people of Mamelodi, speak a more complex form of Sepitori, as the area is generally more linguistically diverse but mostly dominated by Pedi speaking people. People in the Garankuwa and Mabopane areas would say 'Keya ko nna' for 'I am going home'. Residents of Mamelodi for example would say, 'Ke ya jarateng' they would also use 'keya ko nna' as well . residents of Soshanguve for example would say 'keya jointeng or keya dladleng' There is a strong relationship between it and Afrikaans and Tsotsitaal. Afrikaans is a fusion of the Dutch language from the Netherlands and local Khoisan and Cape Malay variations. Tsotsitaal is a form of Afrikaans which is used in urban South Africa, originally by thugs trying to disguise their language. It was soon associated with being cool and with the times, and broader society began to use it. Many criminals in urban areas were former mine workers, construction workers and farmers. In revolt against the industrial oppression and the apartheid regime in general, gangs began participating in criminal activities and would plot and scheme in crowded township environments. The people of Mamelodi like to incorporate the variations of other Pretorian townships. So most of the words used in other places are either considered obsolete or are adopted into the ever changing language. So you could say Sepetori semetsi which has multiple means depending on context in this it would mean Sepetori is new. In the Pretoria area, this became the language of the klevas, well-dressed township-dwellers who were trendy and up to speed with cultural developments. The high social status that came with being recognized as a kleva resulted in a growing number of people speak that way. Tsotsitaal thus went from being a cult-lik...
