Haai julle!

Roger Thijs [roger.thijs at village.uunet.be] vra na aanleiding van die
"Register vanden Veghenooten der Stadt Sint-Truyden
ghepassert bij heeren ende Stadt opden XXJen Maij 1590".

Some words I don't recognise in modern Dutch may exist in other lowland
languages.

*Manuscript/ Modern Dutch/Comments
__Aert__/  Verpachter/ The one who lend the land to somebody

Ek ken die vorm nie in Afrikaans nie, behalwe (moontlik) as die derivatiewe
suffiks in woorde soos gierigaard/suinigaard/vrekkerd [vrekaard]. Dalk het die
vorm _aard_ oorspronklik "houer/eienaar/besitter" beteken?

 __wen__/ Pachter/ The one who lends the land from somebody
- comment:  I just know the word "wénning" for lage farm in my dialect,
- comment:  cf. Dutch "broodwinning" (main income)

Ja, die laaste betekenis kom ook voor in die Afr. _broodwinner_ (die
persoon wat 'n gesin se inkomste verdien).

Dalk hou die familienaam _Henning_ hiermee verband?

  __tochter__/ vruchtgebruiker/ the one that may have the revenues
of the land (as long as he lives)

Ek ken geen vorm in Afrikaans wat hiermee ooreenkom nie.

In Afrikaans is dit  _bywoner_.

Groete,

Elsie Z
