Julius Malema may be too young to know there is a word for hermaphrodite in sePedi, his home language.

At a press conference to voice the ANCYL's support for embattled Athletics South Africa (ASA) boss Leonard Chuene on Thursday, Malema berated the international athletics body and the media for referring to Caster Semenya as a hermaphrodite, a word for which he said there is no equivalent in sePedi.
