chinjirudzaBelow I have listed words, some of which are already in use and new words that I have concocted to be used for certain scientific terminologies in Shona. If there are further suggestions let us share them here and discuss them, particularly for words like molecule, proton, and electron which I am still uncertain of.
The formation of the following words has followed the Shona word creation system, as you will find some are compound words and function descriptive words. I.e. Guruzivo (great knowledge).
