Mandoza
Mandoza was a Kwaito legend who gave us a lot of hit songs like Nkalakatha, Tornado, etc.

amatile-tile
Xhosa plural for stratagems. It is actually just amatile. Singular is itile. The ti is pronounced like English tea and le as in French. From the Sanskrit kutila which appear in Xhosa as ukutila.
My car broke down on the way, I had to make amatile-tile to get here.
Boer maak 'n plan
It literally means a farmer makes a plan.
It’s testament to the fact that the Afrikaner will figure stuff out. If there’s a problem, he’ll find a workaround. If something is scarce, he’ll find a substitute.
These power cuts are annoying but 'n Boer maak 'n plan.
