Haai almal,

Buttje het sy aanklank in Afrikaans met "boetie" wat broer of seuntjie 
beteken.
Ek noem my drie broers 'Boeta' as liefdeswoordjie.

Die woord het in Xhosa/Zoeloe 'buthie' geword, en wat ons nuwe onder-eerste
minister, Phumzile Mahlampo-Ngquka die hoofregter gedurende die week genoem
het (buite protokol!) toe hy haar ingesweer het.

Groete,
Elsie Zinsser
LS/D(?)/Missingsch 'Buttje'

Verskoon my.
