My Summary
The Xhosa language is composed of 3 types of clicks and Xhosa pronunciations. The clicks are unique to the Xhosa language but the pronunciations (specifically vowels) are very close to English. Another similarity of Xhosa and English is the written language, both Xhosa and English use the same symbols in both alphabets, but Xhosa combines some of the letters in addition to some single letters.
