Imhlophe
- it is white
Another 'igama losuku', word of the day from the Oxford Living Dictionary.
Beautiful example:
Wayilanda inyamazane leyo. Yayinone imphlophe qwa.
He went to fetch that antelope. It was fat and bright white.
Imithi imphlophe, 'white medicines', are a category of muthis associated with blessings and luck. Wonderful stuff.
