Nomtshingo (gender unknown)

➺ remark(s) below

bagpipe term also used for other aerophones

Identical types: 45

NOT a bagpipe, but a dubious entry in Wordhippo; NB: Umtshingo / Imitshingo are Zulu names for flute (and reed pipe) with an obliquely cut embouchure; NB: "Nomtshingo" is a grammatical form (Na + umtshingo), meaning "and / also / even / with (a / the) flute", and I have encountered none of these terms / forms mentioned in relation to bagpipes!
