<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">"Ons sê “that” in byna alle situasies.
Ons kan sê “He is the man that lives next door” in plaas van “He is the man
who lives next door.” Ons kan beide sê, maar ek glo DAT </span><span style="font-family:Wingdings">J</span><span style="font-family:Consolas"> ons
sê “that” meer dikwels as “what.” Dus, ek nie weet WAT die regte gebruik is nie.
Wat sê julle?"</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"></span> </div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Lees 'n bietjie saam:</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Wie woon langsaan?</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (Who lives next
door?)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Hy woon langsaan!</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (He lives
next-door!)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Hy wat langsaan woon boer met
konyne.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (He who lives next
door farms rabbits.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Wat die hart van vol is loop die mond
van oor. - 'n gesegde.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (That which fills
the heart overflows at the mouth. - a saying)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"></span> </div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Hou 'dat' liewers opsy vir 'n
nougesette 'that': Soos in</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (Hold 'dat' rather
to one side for a narrowly focussed 'that': As in </span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Dit vir dat.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (This for
that.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Ek glo dat hy lewe.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (I believe that he
lives.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"></span> </div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Maar 'dat', ons 'that', word
redelik min gebruik.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (But 'dat', our
'that' gets reasonably little use.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">'Dit', jou 'this', in teendeel
word oorals toegepas: By voorbeeld</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> ('Dit, your 'this'
on the contrary, is used all over: As in)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Dit sal die dag wees!</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (That will be the
day!) "Not @$#*^!+ing likely!"</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Dit sal my mooi pas.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (This will fit me
well.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Dis genoeg. "dit + is"</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (That is
enough.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Dit kom jou toe.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (you deserve
it.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"></span> </div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Ek verneem jy het 'n Grammatika, maar
my voorstel is <strong>dat</strong> jy op Die Taal in sy gebruik ieder as
in die raam alleen daarvan toespits.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (I assume you have a
Grammer, but my suggegestion is <strong>that</strong> you focus on the
Taal in use rather than only on the frame.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">By voorbeeld: Lees voortdurend romanne,
Dalene Mattee sou my keuse wees. Nog 'n geslepe grepie is om Bybel te
lees.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (For example: Read
novels continuously, Dalene Matthee would be my choice.
Another sly device is to read the Bible.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Hierdie laaste is 'n ou,
beproefde metodiek, en geslaagd: Om werk in die taal wat jy leer in paralel
met werk wat jy ken te lees. Ek vermoed jy ken jou Bybel!</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (This last is an
old, proven method, & effective: To read works in the language
you are learning in parallel with works that you know. I
presume you know your Bible!)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">Die Bybel is veral toepaslik in die
verband omrede die gehalte taalgebruik en vertaling daaraan besteë.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (The Bible is
particularly applicable in this context owing to the quality of
language-use and translation dedicated thereto.)</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas">In 'n neutedop, laat die
onderbewussyn liewers jou woordekeuse bepaal, uit die skat wat jy voortdurend
inboesem, pleks van om oor die meganiek van Afrikaans te probeer redeneer. Let
wel: Hiermee openbaar ek voor jou die gemaklike toegang tot Taalvlotheid.
Die luie se opsie!</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:Consolas"> (In a nut-shell, let
the subconscious mind rather determine your choice of word,
out of the treasury you are continuously absorbing, rather than trying to reason
out the mechanics of Afrikaans. Take note: I hereby reveal
unto you the easy way to fluency in Afrikaans. The lazy man's
option!)</span></div>
