ukuyeka ukuthobeka quote
I-Wikipedia ichaza ukuthozama:
ukuthozama (ukususela ku-"be modest", "take back", "zanelisa", "zilahlela") kulwimi lwanamhlanje lithethathethana nelithi "frugality", "unpretentiousness", "simplicity", "restraint".
Unganxulumana nobume be abantu balisa (= ukuthozama njengophawu lomlinganiswa) okanye ubonakalise indlela yokuziphatha ethile (= indlela yokuphila elula, ukulahla ubunewunewu).
Kuphononongo olulungileyo, lenza umlingane kumagama anjengokuthi "ukufuna ukubonakala", "ikratshi", "ukungabi nasimilo", "ukugqithisa" okanye "ukunqwenela ukuqhatha".
Ngelizwi elihlekisayo, lifumaneka kumabinzana afana nelithi "impumelelo ethobekileyo", "ubusikelelwe ngobukrelekrele obuthobekileyo", "ukusuka kwiimeko ezindilisekileyo zokuphila".
Umntu oziphoxayo ukwathetha "ngesabelo sam esincinane" (= isabelo esincinane), "umntu wam othobekileyo" (= ukuthobeka kwam), "umnikelo wam othobekileyo", "isipho sam esithobekileyo" (= isikhumbuzo/umnikelo).
Ukutsho komntu ukuba yena okanye omnye umntu “uthozamile” usenokubonakalisa ukuzibamba ngokuzithandela, ukuzibamba (mhlawumbi “okuneshwangusha”) kubuntu okanye iimeko, okanye ukuphoxa okanye ukunganyaniseki.
