🎉 DAY 1: Welcome to Shona Language Month! 🎉
This month we're heading to Southern Africa as we celebrate the beauty, history and culture of the Shona language. 💚💛❤️
Did you know?
Shona is one of the most widely spoken languages in Zimbabwe, with millions of speakers across the country and throughout the diaspora.
It belongs to the Bantu language family, connecting it to many other African languages spoken across the continent.
Shona is rich in storytelling, proverbs, music, community traditions and expressions that have been passed down through generations.
Over the coming weeks we'll be sharing words, phrases, cultural insights, fun facts and opportunities to practise speaking Shona.
Whether you're:
✔️ Zimbabwean and looking to reconnect with your roots
✔️ A language lover
✔️ Planning a trip
✔️ Curious about African cultures
✔️ Looking for a new challenge
There's a place for you in our community.
And yes... we'll be running a FREE Shona Taster Session soon! 🎉
Comment **"TASTER"** below and we'll DM you the details as soon as registration opens. 📩
Let's spend the month learning, connecting and celebrating Shona together.

Maybe life got busy.
Maybe you kept saying “one day.”
Maybe you’re travelling soon, reconnecting with family, exploring African cultures, or just looking for something new and meaningful to try ✨
Whatever your reason, this is your sign to start.
At SOAL, we know learning a language can feel intimidating at first:
“What if I’m too old?”
“What if I pronounce things wrong?”
“What if I can’t keep up?”
That’s exactly why we created our FREE Edo Taster Class 💛
A relaxed, beginner-friendly session.
No pressure. No judgement. Just community, culture, and conversation
Whether you’re African, non-African, reconnecting with your roots, learning for travel, or simply curious, you are welcome here 🤝🏾

English has only one word for "go."
Edo has several and they each mean something different depending on where you're going and why you're going and..Who you are, in relation to that place.
Let us look at another English word: "do."
That's not harder to learn, it's just giving you more vocab to truly express yourself.
Growing up in a household with parents who spoke other languages, you might have heard the language around you without ever being taught the structure beneath it. So it stayed just out of reach, it felt and sounded familiar but somehow, just somehow you couldn't get it.
That gap is exactly what SOAL was built to close.
When you understand how Edo verbs work, really work, the language stops feeling foreign and starts feeling like home.
