"HAVE WE BECOME SLOW TO GIVE NAMES?” ASKS NUL STUDENT OF LINGUISTICS



The on-going study by the National University of Lesotho (NUL) Linguistics Masters student, Maky Letsie, was sparked by a whatsApp message from a friend (Refiloe Lephoi). Basotho, according to the message, call ATM “mochine,” laptop “mochine,” pencil sharpener “mochine,” nail cutter “mochine,” beautiful car “mochine,” washing machine, “mochine,” and a good student, “mochine.”

Of course there is nothing wrong with "mochine" since “all the above words have a machine-like element in them,” Maky said. “But can we introduce variety when giving names?”

CALL FOR BUSINESS PROPOSALS FOR THE SECOND PHASE OF THE NUL INNOVATION HUB!

The National University of Lesotho (NUL) Research and Innovations Committee has been tasked with overseeing the NUL Innovation Hub activities among other duties. The call is hereby made to all NUL staff members, NUL Students and NUL Graduates with existing innovative businesses that can be incubated within the second phase of the NUL Innovation Hub space. Businesses should have at least one of their members being affiliated with NUL as mentioned above.

BREAKING NEWS! THIS IS THE DESIGN OF THE NUL SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING

 

This is the Architectural Design of the much awaited National University of Lesotho (NUL) School of Engineering. With six stories, it will not only be the tallest building at the Roma campus, it will also be a catalyst for the upcoming boom in innovation and entrepreneurship in Lesotho. That is so, thanks to a high level cooperation between NUL, the Ministries of Education, Development Planning, Finance and a Consortium of Local Consultants.

Actually, the Government of Lesotho is pouring millions into the detailed architectural and program designs!
