<font size="2">Hi to All</font></div>
<div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">Afrikaans is in the real sense not of African
origin. It originated from Dutch. Jan van Riebeeck arrived here in South
Africa in 1652 with the Dutch language. Afrikaans originated from Dutch
and transformed over time into what is today termed as Afrikaans. We have
11 official languages today and of these 11 Afrikaans and English are recognized
as the two official languages.</font></div>
<div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">Its a pity though that black pupils don't really
enjoy learning subject in their home language. English is use instead.
There is a big demand by black pupils to learn subjects at school in their own
language but the government persist that they learn English instead, this of
course bring about lots of difficulty in understanding subjects such as
mathematics, science just to name a few.</font></div>
