Ulwaluko, bendabuko ukusoka futhi Ukuqalwa ifomu ebuntwaneni sibe abantu abadala, kuyinto Ukuqalwa emkhubeni yasendulo (nakuba hhayi kuphela) ngokufaka amaXhosa, futhi ngokuvamile kwenziwa eNingizimu Afrika.Isiko ngokwesiko kuhloswe ngalo njengesikhungo sokufundisa, ukulungiselela abesilisa abancane ngemithwalo yemfanelo yobudoda. Ngakho-ke, amathwasa abizwa ngokuthi abakhwetha ngesiXhosa : aba kusho iqembu, kanti i- kwetha kusho ukufunda. Eyesilisa oyedwa eqenjini waziwa ngokuthi umkhwetha.Owesilisa ongakatholakali ubizwa ngo- inkwenkwe (umfana), kungakhathalekile ukuthi uneminyaka emingaki, futhi akavunyelwe ukuba yingxenye yemisebenzi yabesilisa efana nemihlangano yesizwe. Isiko lokuqalisa livame ukwenziwa ngasekupheleni kukaJuni / ekuqaleni kukaJulayi noma ngasekupheleni kukaNovemba / ekuqaleni kukaDisemba.
