Zita rakapihwa nekuda kwehukama hwaive nevanhu vekwaMutapa nepasi rose, vaive vatengesi vezvinhu zvakawanda uye pakati pezvinhu izvi, zvishandiso nemamineral aive ndarama (kana goridhe). MuChihindi shoko rekuti ndarama rinonzi 'sona', uye kuGujariti inozivikanwawo sekuti 'sona' kana 'sonu', muChisanis'kiriti (Sanskirit) shoko rekuti 'sonu' rinoreva 'akanaka'.

Nekuda kwekusiyana kwemazwi uye kushanduka kwemitauro shoko rekuti wa rakazopedzisira ravhiringidzwa kuti 'Shona' izvi zvaigona kunge zvakabatsirwa nevaNguni neshoko ravo rekuti 'tshona'.

Pamusoro pezvo, nekuda kwehuori uhu shoko rekuti Sonaland rakava Shonaland, uye zita revanhu rakashandurwa kubva kuSona kuenda ku 'Shona' seboka. Zita iri raishandisirwa vanhu veHumambo hweMutapa hwese.

Clement Doke

Muma 1900s, iro shoko rekuti Shona, kunyangwe rakasikwa nevanhu vakasiyana, pekupedzisira rakatanga kushandiswa rikadhindwa pavanhu vese nekuda kwekufanana kwemitauro yavo naiye anonzi Clement Doke. Nekuita izvi akavhiringidza vanhu uye vakaverengerwa mutsika yeZezuru, zvichikonzera kutsamwa uye kupesana pakati pevanhu pachavo. Pamusoro pezvo, mamwe madzinza muZimbabwe akanzwa kusunganidzwa nekuda kwehuwandu hwevanhu vanonzi "Shona". "Vashona" vakaita sevaVhenda (Venda), vakagadzirwa kubva kuvanhu vechiKalanga, girama iri pakati pemitauro yakafanana uye vanogoverana nhoroondo, zvisinei kazhinji kazhinji vanhu vanopokana vachitenda kuti zvivakwa ndezvavo kwete rimwe dzinza kana chokwadi chiripo, iyo nhoroondo ndeyavo vese, kunyangwe hazvo zvemazuva ano zvakasarudzika.

.....By grouping the languages and tribes, Clement confused the people and they were assimilated into Zezuru culture, creating anger and division among the people themselves. Additionally, other tribes in Zimbabwe felt united against (or "ganged-up on") due to the large population of the so-called "Shona". A portion of The "Shona" like the Vhenda (Venda), developed from the Kalanga people, the grammar between the languages is similar and they even share history. However often times people due to political discord people refuse to believe or rather give credit that the monuments belong to Shona peoples and as well as Kalanga peoples, even going as far as denying the relationship between the two now independent groups. A lot of people show a disregard for Shona languages, often disrespecting speakers when they say they want to be regarded as speakers of an independent language and not a dialect. Additionally, other shona languages are often not regarded among their peers due to them not sounding like 'zezuru', example the Ndau speakers are often accused of speaking 'broken shona', while the rest of the country (Zimbabwe) despises the Shona because they feel the language is being forced upon them. This however is not a reflection of the people of themselves, as most people outside the country report Shona people as being peaceful and friendly. Shona people though meek they can also be assertive and will often defend themselves agaisnt xenophobia or attempts to label them as xenophobic simply because there are a few individuals within the tribes who are not good people. After all, every nation, race, and tribe has it's own "bad apples" so as to say. The unfortunate thing is there is also a lack of materials to learn other Shona languages (which are still not regarded as individual languages of one related people sharing a common ancestry)...Manyika, Karanga, Korekore, Zezuru, Ndau, Buja...

Kuroora Vakadzi vakawanda (Polygny)

Mabhenefiti eVarume

Mumagariro eVashona varume vaikwanisa kuroora vakadzi vakawanda. Hondo padzakange dzichiri dzakajairika, madzinza kana mapoka emadzinza akakunda hondo idzi, pakati pezvimwe zvinhu, vaive nemugove wezviwanikwa pakati pevanhu wakanaka. Saka kuitira vane huwandu hwakakwana hwevashandi vekudzivirira ndima, zvaikurudzirwa nenzanga kuti varume vese vakakura kuti varoore vakadzi vakawanda sezvavaikwanisa nekuita vana vazhinji.

Kuvarume, kuroora vakadzi vakawanda zvakange zvakavanakira, nekuti zvaiita kuti mabasa ave nyore. Vadzimai nevana vasipihwa ndima dzavo dzemabasa adiwa kuitwa mumapurazi mashandiro akaita se:

• kurima
• kudyara,
• kusakura,
• kukohwa
• kutarisa zvipfuyo nezvimwe wo

Nekuda kwezvinhu zvakadai vanhu vairumbidza kuroora vakadzi vazhinji. Sezvo zvinowanzo kudhura kuva mumba ine vakadzi vakawanda, hupfumi hwemurume hwaiyerwa nenhamba yevakadzi yaaive nayo, saka murume aive nevakadzi vakawanda aitariswa semunhu akapfuma. Muchokwadi, vamwe vakadzi vaida kuva madzimai evarume vane vakadzi kavawanda nekuda kwekutenda kuti varume vakadaro vaive nepfuma yekuvachengeta vachifara.

Chimutsamapfihwa

• Kugara nhaka (kwevarume)

Kana murume akafirwa anokwanisa kuroora munin'ina wemukadzi wake akashaya kana kunyange muzukuru wemukadzi wake akashaya. Semuenzaniso, munin'ina wemukadzi mushakabvu anopihwa murume wake kuti amubatsire kuchengeta mhuri. Basa ra chimutsamapfihwa ndere kuona kuti anoenderera mberi nebasa nemabasa ehanzvadzi yake (kana hama) mumhuri.

Vana

Vana vaive vakakosha munyaya yesimba rezvematongerwo enyika. Kazhinji varume vane vana nevazukuru vazhinji vaiwanzo tora nzvimbo dzine simba kupfuura avo vasina. Madzinza uye dzimba dzaive zvidhinha zvekuvakisa nzira yekupinda munyaya yezvematongerwo enyika. Pamusoro pezvo, murume aitarisira wo kuvana vake uye nevazukuru vake kutsigirwa munguva yekurwara, uye makuriro enhamba yevana yaitaridza makuriro etarisiro yekuenderera kwerutsigiro.

Vamwe varume vakapinda muhuwandu mubatanidzwa vaidaro nekuda kwebonde yavaipihwa pakakokwa kondinendi panguva yekuzvitakura nekuyamwisa kwevakadzi. Zvakange zvisinga bvumidzwi kuti murume aite zvepabonde nemukadzi wake panguva yekuyamwisa. Uyezve, iyo nguva yekuyamwisa yaive yakareba, kusvika makore maviri kana matatu. Pakanga pasina mukaka wekugadzira wekuti mwana adye.

Mabhenefiti eVakadzi

Muenzaniso weVakadzi vachibatsira kuita basaMuridzi: Emile Antoine Bayard

Dzimwe nguva kuroora vakadzi vakawanda kwaishandiswa senzira yekudzivirira kurambana. Kana hukama huripo pakati pemurume nemukadzi wake wakaipa nekuda kwehusimbe hwemukadzi kana zvimwe zvikonzero, iye aigona kuchengetwa semukadzi kune imwe mhando yehunhu hwake senge runako, kana hupfumi hwake. Sezvo, mutemo wekupachirikadzi nhaka yaitungamira chikonzero chekuti varume varoore vakadzi vakawanda. Panofa munin'ina wemunhu, nzanga yaitarisira hama yasara kuti itarisire shirikadzi nevana vayo.

Vamwe vakadzi vakafunga kuti paive nezvimwe zvakanakira kupinda muuzhinji mubatanidzwa. Mukumba mukadzi aitarisirwa kutakura mutoro wese wepamba. Nekuda kweizvi, vamwe vakadzi vakaroorwa vakakurudzira varume vavo kuroora mamwe madzimai kuitira kuti vasava navo kutakura mutoro wese wepamba vari vega. Kazhinji vakadzi vaida kushamwaridzana futi. Mumagariro echinyakare zvaisave zvakakodzera kuti murume nemukadzi vagovane zvido zvakafanana uye zviitiko kana kuti ivo vanofanirwa kuve pamwechete kana kuita zvese pamwechete nguva dzese. Mumwe murume aitarisirwa kutsvaga shamwari nevamwe vake, uye mukadzi nevamwe vakadzi. Saka nekuda kwekufambidzana nevamwe vakadzi vakakurudzira varume vavo kuti vaunze mumwe mukadzi mumuwanano wavo. Uye, mutemo wenhaka yechirikadzi yaipa vamwe vakadzi mufaro, nekuti yaivavimbisa rugare, hupfumi nechengetedzo mushure mekufa kwemurume. Pamwe nekuda kweichi chidikanwi chemagariro uye kuchengetedzeka kwehupfumi dzimwe chirikadzi dzakakurudzira hama dzemurume wavo vapenyu kuti vapinde muhukama hwemukadzi wemurume navo.

Kuroora

Kuganha

• Kuzviisa muwanano

Kana mukadzi achizivisa murume waanoshuvira kuroora anotora mukana uyu, anosarudza murume ogona kumuroora. Nzira iyi yekuroora yakasiyana neinowanzo shandiswa yekuti murume anosarudza mukadzi. Pamusoro pezvo, murume anogona kuve asina mukadzi kana kunge akaroorwa. Pachivanhu izvi zvinogamuchirwa pabarika, apo mukadzi aikura uye aifanira kuroora. Kazhinji, varume vaisaramba chikumbiro uye vaitora vakadzi vacho. Pakutora vakadzi, vaibva vabhadhara mari yavo kumhuri yevakadzi kuti vapedzise muchato.

Kutema ugariri

• Kushandira mukadzi

Nzira iyi inotorwa kana murume asingakwanise kubhadhara roora kuburikidza nekubhadharwa kwemombe dzechivanhu. Kazhinji, nzira iyi inoshandiswa nemhuri dzine hurombo kana nherera. Kutema ugariri inzira yekuroora inobvumidza murume kuroora nekushandira vabereki vemukadzi pakupera kwebasa rake, anobva azokwanisa kutora mudzimai wake. Sarudzo yekutema ugariri inopa nhengo dzakatambura imwe nzira yekuroora kana vasingakwanise kubhadhara kuburikidza netsika yekushandisa mombe.

Kuzvarira

• Kupikisa mwana kunemunhu

Mukuzvarira zvinoreva kuti vabereki vanopa mwanasikana wavo kuenda kunoroorwa nemunhu akapfuma kana akapfuma kudarika ivo:

• Mukutsinhana nemombe,
• Chikafu
• kana chero zvimwe zvakakosha.

Iyi fomu yemuchato inotangwa nemhuri kana iri pasi pekushushikana kwemari kana kushaya hupfumi. Pakupa mwanasikana wavo kumhuri yakapfuma, ndiyo nzira yekubaira munhu kuti awane mikana iri nani uye kubvisa kushushikana kwemari mukati memba. Muzviitiko zvakawanda, kuzvarira kunoonekwa sedanho rekupedzisira. Iyi fomu ye roora haina kuitwa zvekupokana. Zvaiwanzosangana uye kutaurirana pamusoro pemhuri mwana asati avimbiswa kumhuri yekwatezvara.

Kutizira

• Kusiya imba uchienda kumba kwemukomana nekuda kwekuva nenhumbu
• Kana musikana achirambidza kuva nemukomana anogona kutizira

Kutizira itsika yakajairika yemuchato iyo ichiri kuitwa pakati pesangano reVashona. Iyi fomu yemuchato inoitika kana mukadzi abata nhumbu roora isati yabhadharwa kumhuri yake. Pakati pesangano reVashona, musikana asina kuroorwa ane pamuviri haatarisirwe kugara pamba pababa vake. Vashona vaizozvidza mukadzi akazvitakura, asina kuroorwa nekuzvidza uye anoudzwa kuti agare nababa vemwana wake. Nekuda kweizvozvo, munharaunda yemazuva ano, mukadzi ane nhumbu anofanira kuzvimanikidza pamurume ane chekuita kana kutotsvaga mumwe murume anoda kuve nepamuviri, kana mhuri ikatambira vakadzi sevasina kuroorwa uye vane nhumbu.

Kukumbira

• Muchato nekutaurirana

Mukukumbira kana vanhu vanoda kuroorana vafunga kuroora, mhuri dzese dzinoziviswa uye dzinotanga kutaurirana nerubatsiro rwemurevereri. Iyi ndiyo nzira yepamutemo inobvumidza iyo agency yemukadzi, uye mvumo yevabereki vake. Iyi nzira inoita kuti vabereki vechikomba vabhadhare mari yavo vakamirira mhuri yemwenga muchato usati wanzi uri pamutemo. Ichi chimiro chemuchato icho chichiri kuitwa pakati petsika dzechiShona dzazvino. Inoonekwa senzira inogamuchirwa yekuroora.

Kudanana

• Izvi zvinoreva kuti vanhu vacharoorana nekuda kwekuva murudo.

Mazuvano vanhu vanodanana (kana kufambidzana) muchihwande uye vanozivisa hukama hwavo kana vaakugadzirira kuroora.

Musenga Bere

• Kutora mukadzi uchimuendesa kumba kwako

Zvakadaro imwe nzira inozivikanwa uye yepamutemo yekuroora pakati petsika yechiShona yaive ichinzi musenga bere. Tsika iyi ndiyo yekuti murume anotanga kutsvaga musikana waanoda. Nekuona, zvisinei, kuti aisakwanisa kukunda moyo wake kwaari mushure mekuedza kwakawanda, aifanira kutora nzira ine ushingi iyo yaaifanira kuvandira mukadzi uye kumudhonzera kumba kwake. Kana akakwanisa kumuzvuzvurudzira kumba, kunyangwe zvaaishuwira, mukadzi iyeye akabva ave mudzimai wake. Sezvo izvi zvaizivikanwa senzira inoshanda yekuroora, vabereki vemusikana vaisa ramba mari yeroora yaiwanzo tevera kuvandira kwemwanasikana wavo. Tsika iyi haicha shandiswi pakuroora, nekuti vakadzi pari zvino vano chengetedzwa nemitemo yenyika, imhosva kupara nzira yakadai yekuroora. Pari zvino muZimbabwe, muchato unokwanisa chete kana vanhu vese vari vaviri vachipa mvumo yekuroora.

Kuripira Ngozi

• Mubhadharo wemweya wekutsiva

Pakati peVashona kazhinji Kuripira Ngozi itsika inozivikanwa kuti kana nhengo yemhuri ikauraiwa nemunhu wausingazive kana kuti munhu akarova munhu anozivikanwa, ipapo munhu iyeye anofanhira kubhadhara kurasikirwa kweropa nekupa mwanasikana wake kuti aroorwe nemumwe nhengo dzichiripo dzemhuri yemushakabvu. Kana mweya wemufi usati wanyaradzwa nenzira iyi zvinotendwa kuti unozodzoka woita bongozozo mumhuri yemhondi. Pachivanhu, kana mukadzi achinge asarudzwa kuti aite semubhadharo wekurasikirwa kweropa, anotarisirwa kuti asapikisane nesarudzo yevakuru vechirume asi kuti aite saizvozvo.

Roora

Kuti muwane rimwe ruzivo endai ku: Roora

Dzimwe mhuri dzinoda mombe munguva yeroora.

Roora (Chindebele: Lobola). Pakati peVashona, sekumwe kune dzimwe nzanga dzevabereki, mubhadharo unonzi masazo "roora" unotora chinzvimbo chakakosha pakuronga kwekuchinjana nekubatana pakati pemhuri mbiri idzi dzaizodai dzakaunzwa pamwe nevakaroora. Haisi chete iyo masazone inoonekwa semubhadharo wakaitirwa iyo nguva nedambudziko rinotorwa kurera mwanasikana uyo ave kutumirwa kunogara neimwe mhuri, asi inoendesa kodzero dzehukama kumurume uye pakupedzisira kodzero pamusoro pevana vanozvarwa muwanano. Kana mukadzi akazviratidza kuva asingabereki kana kusiya asati abereka vana, hupfumi hwemuroora hunofanhira kudzoserwa. Kunyange hazvo pfuma yemuroora yakakosheswa mukubata muchato, kune zvimwe zvikamu zvakakosha zvemaroora zvinoita mubatanidzwa wemuchato pakati peVashona zvikuru. Pachivanhu, muchato wakaiswa chisimbiso kuburikidza nekubhadharwa rutsambo "kukosha kunoonekwa semari yeroora chaiyo" uye bhidhi (bead) yetambo inonzi chuma. Rutsambo mumazuva ekare akatora chimiro chebadza. Yakanga isiri tsaona chete kuti vakuru vedu vakagarira badza sechinhu chaitsanangura muchato; pakanga paine kukosha kukuru kwekufananidzira mubadza. Sezvakataurwa naMunhamu Pekeshe, apo tezvara vakagamuchira badza, ivo vaisimbisa kubatanidza zera kune kubereka kwevhu, zvinova zvinoita kuti muroora akwanise "kuibva" nekukumbirwa ruoko rwake muwanano.

Chuma
