Jy sê, Ron: ...vir jou verdraagsaamheid wat my Saksies-Afrikaanse
flamenco op klompe betref!
Met kastanette kan mens enigiets vermag :-)

Ook:

>As 'n mens vra[ag]: "Hoe gaan dit?", kan jy antwoord: "Dankie. Kan nie
>beter nie", n ?
>Kan 'n mens ook s: "Kan/kon nie beter wees nie" (soos Engels _Couldn't be better_, >Nedersaksies _Kun
nich beter wesen/syn_ en Duits _(Es) k nnte nicht besser sein_)?
>Kortom, is _Kan nie beter nie_kort vir _Kan nie beter
wees nie" (sonder werkwoord)?
>Of is dit 'n besondere woordvoering, en kan 'n mens dit anders gebruik, soos *"Kan
>nie durer nie" (in plaas van "Kan nie durer wees nie")?
Ja, die boonste sinsnedes kan almal so gebruik word. (Ek neem aan dat jy
‘duurder’ met ‘durer’ bedoel?)

Dankie, Elsie.

Natuurlik.  :)  Dis my lieflik Saksies "aksent" (_düür_ > _dürer_).

Met watte seker nog meer ... as 'n mens een stukkie in elk oor sit.

Groete,
Reinhard/Ron
