<p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><font size="1"><span><font color="black"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;">Hallo almal,</span></font></span></font></p>
<p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><font size="1"><span><font color="black"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;">Dis 'n plesier, Tomoki! Jy mag my enigiets vra, ook privaat,
want die taalpolitiek in SA is nogal 'n warm patat. </span></font></span></font></p>
<p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><font size="1"><span><font color="black"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;">Nee, plekname is in een taal tensy dit vertaalbaar is soos
Kaapstad/Cape Town, of in een taal verskyn, soos<br>byvoorbeeld Louis Trichardt, Putsonderwater, Izingolweni,
Ixopo of Umtata. </span></font></span></font></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><font size="1"><span><font color="black"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="DE">Die huidige regering is
hard aan die werk om plekname te verander en daar is baie teenkanting uit veral
Afrikaner<br>kringe omdat die
persepsie bestaan dat die regering ontslae wil raak van historiese Afrikaanse plekname,
veral in die Noorde. <span> </span></span></font></span></font></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><font size="1"><span><font color="black"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="DE">Ek is nie seker wat
jy met 'instruksies' bedoel nie. Op goedere wat aangekoop word om self gebou te
word (DIY) soos stortdeure, houtkaste, ens, is instruksies meesal in Engels. Instruksies
kan ook wel in Afrikaans verskyn, afhangende van wat dit is en waar dit gemaak
is. </span></font></span></font></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><font size="1"><span><font color="black"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="DE">Beskrywings op verpakkings
is meesal in Engels, so ook op blikkieskos (tinned food), bevrore kosse en vars
produkte uitstallings. </span></font></span></font></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><font size="1"><span><font color="black"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="DE">Op die platteland sien
mens baie meer Afrikaans en ander inheemse tale as in die stede. <span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span><span> </span></span></font></span></font></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><font size="1"><span><font color="black"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: black;" lang="DE">Staatswette wat in
die Staatskoerant (oftewel Government Gazette) verskyn, is gewoonlik getiteld in
Afrikaans, Zulu, Xhosa en Sotho, en die wet self is dan in Engels.</span></font></span></font></p>
