I'm going to be living for a year in South Africa and was thinking about learning Afrikaans while I was there. Is Afrikaans actually useful or is it just a meme language? Also, can people who speak Dutch and people who speak Afrikaans understand each other?
>>61694718
It's basically a meme language.
>>61694718
But Afrikaans and Dutch is very similar so you could learn 2 languages.
>>61694718
>from argentina to africa
You are finally coming home m8
It's like a dutch dialect with less CH-sounds.
>>61694718
Meme language, dutch is also pretty much a dead language like Irish so...
>>61694769
Yes, that was what I was thinking about. Though learning Dutch wouldn't be that useful on a day to day basis either.
>>61694773
kek
>>61694782
can German people understand Afrikaans?
>Dutch
>speaking anything but arabic
Hot meme. Keep em coming.
>>61694827
yes but I have to concentrate and replay.
>>61694901
So it's kind of like a Spanish/Portuguese/Italian relation?
>>61694922
yeah but at least Dutch is fucking ayy lmao
>>61694718
Don't bother with that crap. English will work everywhere except in a few places populated by inbred apes who speak afrikaans only and can barely string a few english words together.
>>61695156
Afrikaans music sounds based as fuck though.
>>61695156
inbred whites?
>>61695278
Jungle beats calling you back home, eh m8?
>>61695391
A lot of coloureds speak Afrikaans too.
>>61695404
kek
>>61695391
None other. Especially around parts of Pretoria.
>>61695391
t Butt-hurt black “boi”
>>61695504
The ol' Gauteng-aroo
>>61695548
the saffie? i was just asking a question man
>>61695475
Being coloured myself I can assure you that sticking with English will be for the best. No good will come of mixing with the afrikaans ones. Especially the women.
>>61695701
Well, thanks for the info mate.
>>61695701
whats up mulatto bro
are you bantu /english or afrikaans?
>>61695737
Seriously, if you're hitting the clubs remember what I told you.
>>61695812
English all the way.
>>61695895
Do people who speak Afrikaans have a harder time getting laid? what?
>>61695955
same, dad is english and my black side is haitian
Why would you leave neo africa for real africa
>>61695701
when shit hits the fan and whites start getting properly genocided by the full blackies which side will the coloured be on?
>>61695972
Not at all. It's just that the guys tend to be overly possessive and extremely aggressive towards outsiders chatting up chicks, even those who aren't their girlfriends.
>>61696047
Hard to say, we'll probably get wiped out as well. Either way I don't give fuck, it'll bring some entertainment at least.
>>61695993
Family history this side is a bit more complicate though.
>>61696125
So, as a white argie can I get a qt South African gf?
>>61694773
top lmao
>>61696304
If you want a black gf just hop the border senpai
>>61696274
my "black" side is convoluted as fuck, my maternal grandma comes from a long line of mulattos and has green eyes, meanwhile my maternal grandpa is a negro. i came out with my grandma's eyes and caucasian hair though
>>61694835
>Mexican knowing anything about the Netherlands
>>61696304
You'd better bring a few cans of female repellent. They go bonkers for foreign cock.
>>61696409
Nice, thanks for the advice mate.
>>61696409
Don't a lot of girls have HIV/AIDs there?
>>61696431
Better bring a can of HIV repellent too.
>>61694792
>>61694827
>>61694835
What is this hot new spicy meme?
Dutch is spoken in three sovereign states. That's more than most European languages.
There's more Dutch speakers than all Nordic speakers combined.
>>61696335
>great granddady was brit, married a coloured woman (dunno ancestry)
>granddaddy looked like an SS officer
>grandma was some or other mix of german, had a deep hatred of all things Italian for some reason
>father - see above
>mother - Indonesian and east African descent
So I'm easily mistaken for latino
>>61696499
I live in the other side of the world, how would speaking Dutch help me on a day to day basis unless I'm travelling to the Netherlands/Belgium or speaking with someone online? Maybe it'll look impressive on a resume but that's it.
>>61696507
Guess you are the perfect definition of the "Rainbow nation"
>>61696431
Well, if the president himself boned an HIV positive woman without a rubber that says a lot.
>>61696564
Is Zuma a living meme?
>>61696507
lel, spic is #1 thing im confused for, then sometimes northern indian and also when i get tanned up in summer white people start to realize. my dad has blues eyes and his hair was blonde before he turned like 17. typical brit i guess.
>be in ski lodge during winter
>guy comes up to me
>where did you go for spring break?
>uh nowhere
>oh uh you looked tanned sorry
>>61696537
>Rainbow nation
Don't believe that bullshit the media puts out. The truth is that this country has never had unity of any kind. Even back in the days of the NP government there was a huge divide between Afrikaans and English white and it still exists today. Various black tribes? Same shit. It's just that it's an undercurrent of varying depth that comes to the surface from time to time.
Why would anyone want to live in a 3rd world shithole? Is the pussy that good?
>>61696703
Guess it's nice having a honest guy to red pill me about ZA. Thanks for all the info man, really appreciate it.
>>61696588
ONORABLE MEMBAH
>>61696499
And most Dutch speaking countries are irrelevant.
>>61694718
Why would you go to South Africa m8
Do you want to get raped full of aids?
>>61696774
You can't comprehend how much political fighting between English and Afrikaners happened in in ZA history. It didn't start in the 20th century, nah it was before that, before, before that and it spurred a lot of political conflict, movement and clever trickery.
>>61696588
Sure is. Just google Zuma + scandals.
>>61696925
Isn't that guy Zapiro considered a white nationalist or something by Zuma? kek
>>61696908
Yeah, and the funny part is that the motto on the old coat of arms was "ex unitate vires" - "from unity, strength".
>>61694718
It's a dumbed down version of Dutch that really shouldn't qualify as a full language. It's closer to a pidgin.
>>61696745
I used to live there and the answer is yes. Afrikaner girls are top quality.
>>61696944
Anyone who says any shit about the government is branded an enemy of the state. If you want to read some truly interesting shit, pick up a copy of Pale Native by Max du Preez. Max himself went from this:
>an outstanding example to you all (Mandela)
to this:
>a politcal commissar of apartheid (Mbeki)
>>61697051
kek, why do people keep voting the ANC? don't they realize they can't run the country?
>>61697072
The ANC stays in power by saying apartheid will come back if the DA gets power. Blacks are dumb enough to believe it.
>>61697072
Because they have an irrational fear of a return to apartheid which is reinforced by the ANC every election. That and a misguided loyalty to Mandela. All the other parties are shit as well anyway so you're fucked on all fronts.
As for the DA? Bunch of wankers too. What can one say about a party that votes in favour of a rule in parliament knowing that it will be used against them and then whine about it two months later when that's exactly what happens?
>DA wants to raise a point about Zuma
>Speaker: shuddup or we throw you out
>DA says okay
>bitches about it to news crew afterwards "the speaker had no right to do that"
But that's exactly what you voted for you fag.
>>61696537
How would speaking Dutch help me on a day to day basis?
Well, you are from Argentina. So speaking a decent level of Dutch would give you a specific niche at home with jobs. Your value goes up when speaking an uncommon language. Like with me speaking Estonian in Texas.
>>61695504
You must be from the western cape, student perhaps? Don't you have a protest to go to? Or are you based STEM?
>>61695955
Aweh bra, gaanit? Hoekom vertel jy virrie mense dat jy net engels praat? Praat kak, jo poesbek!
>>61697201
Coloured okes on 4chins? Good lord well I never
>>61697201
Miss Finland is Coloured
>>61698536
Because I have no desire to speak that monkey tongue.
>Poesbek
If that is the best you can do then you are truly nothing but a dakskroef.
>>61698443
Grew up there.
>>61698669
When the end of days is at hand there will be signs.
>>61694827
>Though learning Dutch wouldn't be that useful on a day to day basis either.
it is the most useful language known to man, because you can order stroopwafels in it.
>latins in charge of knowledge
is it true SA niggers are dangerous? will they kill me if I say I'm russian?
>>61699676
>will they kill me if I say I'm russian?
any sane person will
>>61699455
>Because I have no desire to speak that monkey tongue.
jou ma se poes
>>61699676
No, it's the Russians in SA that are dangerous.
>>61699698
>butthurt monkey and probably a hairyback

>Hendro
>>61699627

>>61699455
Nah man I'm not even from SA, I'm Namibian.
Taking a holiday in NZ, met a shitload of SA expats here though
Dit is nu een Nederlandstalige/Afrikaanse draad
Negers buiten!
ek es graag hier
>>61694718
I was gonna tell you to be careful but then I remembered that you've nothing to fear since you'll blend in with the blacks.
