Marc Dreyer:
you translate "wordhoard"/vocabulary with "woordlys" to afrikaans. However I
have the feeling here "vocabulary" would be something liek woordeskat (sp?)
in Afrikaans as "hoard" means treasure. At leas tin Dutch, 'woordenschat'
and 'woordenlijst' are completely different things, altho both can be
translated "vocabulary" in English.
