South African word for a millipede — those slow-moving, many-legged arthropods that curl into a tight spiral when disturbed. The word is widely used across South Africa and comes from Zulu and Xhosa, making it one of many indigenous-language borrowings that enrich South African English. Shongololo has a friendly, almost onomatopoeic quality that suits the harmless creature perfectly. Children learn the word early, and it appears in South African literature, brand names, and popular culture.
