About Us Contact Us Jobs News United States Welcome to Academic & Professional Dictionaries Education English Language Teaching General Interest Since it was established in Cape Town in 1915, OUP Southern Africa has become a leading dictionaries publisher in South Africa, with a dedicated team developing both English and African language titles. This case study features in our Annual Report 2015. The Oxford Bilingual School Dictionary: isiXhosa and English was published this year. IsiXhosa is South Africa’s second most commonly spoken mother tongue, and the new title was the language’s first to be created using modern dictionary-making principles. It was well received by the Xhosa community, with one of Nelson Mandela’s grandsons and members of Xhosa royalty among the guests at its launch. Later in its centenary year, OUP Southern Africa also launched a major campaign designed to bring its dictionaries to those who need them the most. Through the ‘Every Child Deserves a Dictionary’ campaign, OUP committed to giving away 20,000 dictionaries to schools across South Africa.
