Management and Internal Standardization of Chemistry Terminology: A Northern Sotho Case Study
One of the many implications of the process of language democratization which started post-1994 in South Africa is the empowerment of the previously marginalized South African Bantu languages to become languages of higher functions, i.e. languages of learning and teaching, and also of scientific dis...
