  2. What is Mobile Xhosa? Mobile Xhosa is a resource for South African Health Care Workers - free and right on their cellphones - that will assist them when communicating with Xhosa-speaking patients. There are two parts: • “Modules”: sections with commonly asked questions and their Xhosa translations. • English-Xhosa Dictionary

  3. Step 1: Open your cellphone’s internet browser.

  4. Step 2: Select the internet browser’s address bar.

  5. Step 3: Type in Mobile Xhosa’s address: mobilexhosa.org.za Step 4: Press enter.

  6. You are now at Mobile Xhosa’s home screen. Welcome!

  7. Step 5: Decide on the type of question you would like to ask and select the relevant category. For example, if you wish to ask questions about the patient’s Cardiovascular History, press that icon.

  11. Step 3: Click the text box to begin typing your word.

  12. Step 4: Enter your word. Step 5: Press enter.

  14. Why are there Advertisements? • Mobile Xhosa has been made free-to-use in the spirit of improving communication, overcoming barriers to healthcare and helping as many people as possible. • Advertisements help to defray the cost of running the site. • All advertisements and their target websites meet stringent standards set and maintained by Google Adsense.

  15. The Fine Print • Pronunciation in English and Xhosa are not the same. The clicks - ‘c’, ‘q’ and ‘x’ - are most well known, but other differences also exist, such as ‘hl’. As such, some formal classes in Xhosa are necessary before using Mobile Xhosa to prevent misunderstandings. • Mobile Xhosa is not intended as a source of medical knowledge and the accuracy of any such information presented can not be guaranteed.
