Izenzo zempi:
UZwide wafuna ukwandisa imingcele yakhe, kwathi ngo-1818 wachitha amandla oMbuso wakwaMthethwa, ngemva kokuba ebulale inkosi uDingiswayo. Wabuye walwa nensizwa yakwaZulu empini yaseGqokli Hill. Wachitha uMbuso wakwaKhumalo ongumakhelwane wabulala inkosi yabo uMatshobana KaMangete.

Ekwazi lokhu, uZwide wahlela ukubhidliza uMbuso kaZulu ukuze aqinisekise ukubusa kwamaNdwandwe kwaZulu.
Ngo-1820, wahola ibutho lakhe empini elwa noZulu empini yomfula uMhlatuze. Amabutho akhe abanjwa ewela umfula uMhlatuze ngesikhathi ehlaselwa amabutho kaZulu, ahlakazeka amabutho akwaNxumalo. UZwide wabaleka nensali yendlu yakhe ngaphesheya komfula uPhongolo.

Ukunqoba kukaZulu kwandulela ukuhlakazeka kukaZwide isizwe samaMfekane okwanika isithombe sokuthi ukunqoba kukaShaka kwakuyisiqalo samaMfecane noma ukuhlakazeka. Amabutho kaZwide abalekela enyakatho, lapho asungula imibuso yawo, njengombuso wamaShangane eGaza owabunjwa nguSoshangane.

What is the different between Nxumalo and Ndwandwe? Is it Nxumalo or Nxumayo?
Corlette Lesotho-Nxumalo f
Ndwandwe is the nation of the Nxumalo clan.
Sibusile Nxumalo
Nxumalo not Nxumayo it’s a Zulu clan
Busobomntwana Nxumalo
Nxumayo is correct by Nguni linguistics because the Ndwandwe’s were not Zulu’s they are by birthright a nation that was not conquered by the Zulu king Shaka kaSenzangakhona nor were they ever subjected to the Zulu’s.
UKUTHEFUYA is the original language Spoken by the Ndwandwe’s who are also the Nxumalo’s.
The Swazi’s speak also the language but a more known term is UKUTEKETA
