fudo.phambili(1) 🥳 ~= turtle.forward(1) ~= one small step for 🐢

Learners can now talk to turtle, or fudo, in isiXhosa (and soon, Zulu and UK-English)! Primary proj goal is to make it more delightful to learn python by being able to instruct the turtle in the learner's home language.

This talk will be an experience report on turtle-translated, and invitations to help! https://github.com/coderlevelup/turtle-translated

Also including some insights on teaching coding in SA at Coder:LevelUp.
