Subject: Afrikaans words and usages
Hello alle Laaglanders,
Having been away for some weeks I see that I missed out on
some wonderful discussions.
Thanks to all who spoke about appelkose in Afrikaans.
This had me thinking about appelliefie ( with a variant
appelliepie) the Cape gooseberry and moerbei -Mulberry
the latter is probably Nederlands as well. I am
particularly interested to see if the Zeeuws speakers and
Brabanders have anything to add to this .
Ja nee misken is daar ander woorde wat ook miskien
weerklank sal vind in ons neefies en niggies se tale,
byvoorbeeld:
Bobbejaan - Ndl baviaan E: Baboon
Bol in die frase "Hy is gepik in die bol. He is soft in
the head. Bol is gebruik vir â¿¿n ronde voorwerp op
Engels Globe or Sphere Orb ens.
Lekker bly almal.
My you have an Al Capone day that goes off like a shot J
