Abstract

Die elemente van die verhaal is die gebeure, die mense, tyd en plek. Die outcur kan nou die Idem op òf die gebeure, òf die mense plaas. In die eerste gcval vertel hy 'n storie met 'n betreklik ingewikkelde intrige; in die tweede geval kom die mens en sy emosies uiteraard onder die soeklig. Hierdie twee verhaalkategorieë in Noord-Sotho kan in subkategorieë verdeel word wat aan die een kant die moraalstorie, die speurvcrhaal, die liefdesverhaal en die grappige verhaal insluit, en aan die ander kant die tragiese, patetiese, loutcrings- en satiriese verhale.

The basic elements the author works with in telling his story are events, people, time and place. In this process he can put the emphasis on either the events or the people. In doing this he tells a story with an intricate plot, or a story in which he deals with man and his emotions. The first of these two categories in Northern Sotho can be subdivided into the moral story, the detective or suspense story, the love story, and the funny story. The second category can be subdivided into die tragic story, the pathetic story, the satirical story, and the story of probation.
