Hi,

J.L. Pauwels was indeed a great lecturer at the KUL, Leuven (Belgium), but
as far as I know he passed away somewhere in the seventies.

Kind regards,

Roger Hondshoven

 Re "negation", I would like to add that in 1958 Dr. J. L. Pauwels
published

Baie dankie hiervoor, Luc. U inset het ongetwyveld kol getref!

> Afrikaners (or is that "Afrikaansers" these days?),

Well, we say (& have fore some time) ' Afrikaan - Afrikane' for an African
or Africans, covering any nation from Nama to Amazig, 'Afrikaner -
Afrikaners' for ourselves, & 'Afrikander - Afrikanders' for a local breed of
draught cattle. The difference between 'Afrikaner' & 'Afrikander' can stir
up quite as much heat here as the difference between 'Scots' & 'Scotch' (I
duck). The word 'Afrikaanses' (Afrikaans ones) would be an appropriate
extrapolation needed on the spur of the moment to differentiate, for
example, in a party, between those who speak Afrikaans & those who do not.

Hey! Is that the same Dr. J. L. Pauwels I had for linguistics at Monash Uni
in the mid 90s? Great Lecturer, by the way
