AB  - Language shift is the process whereby members of a community in which more than&#xd;
one language is spoken abandon their original language in favour of another. This&#xd;
research concerns language shift by speakers of the Tshivenḓa language found in&#xd;
Beitbridge district in Zimbabwe. The Vhavenḓa people in Beitbridge district are&#xd;
shifting away from their language and using other languages found in the district.&#xd;
Today the Vhavenḓa people living in Beitbridge have adopted other languages and&#xd;
dislike their own. The consequence of forsaking their mother language has had a&#xd;
negative impact on the Vhavenḓa people. The research aims at discussing the&#xd;
concept of shift, what kinds of behaviours constitute shift and indications of shift in&#xd;
the Tshivenḓa language. The research also gives recommendations on how to&#xd;
reduce language shift in the Tshivenḓa language in Beitbridge.&#xd;
