Beste Heiko en Ron,

Baie dankie vir julle advies. Ek volg hierdie advies alreeds vir baie jare
en probeer ek ook om ander mense bewus te maak van ons taal en ook die
belangrikheid om die taal te handhaaf. Baie dankie ook vir die inligting oor
Wikipedia. As ek met pensioen gaan, sal ek hier ruim aandag aan gee. Ek merk
tog in Suid-Afrika onder die Afrikaners 'n belangeloosheid oor hulle taal.
Ek wil vermoed dat ons Afrikaners besig is met 'n proses wat taalverskuiwing
(language shift) genoem word. Dit vind ek wel jammer en probeer ek op talle
manier ons mense bewus te maak van hierdie proses.

Nogmaals baie dankie vir julle belangstelling en ondersteuning. Ons
Afrikaners waardeer dit!

Groetjes,

Petrus van Eeden
