Free Quote and UploadsWhile you’re here… Some quite interesting facts about the Afrikaans language.
Afrikaans is a Low Franconian West Germanic language descended from Dutch and spoken mainly in South Africa and Namibia. In 2013 there were about 17 million speakers in South Africa, where Afrikaans is one of the Statutory national languages, and an official language in nine provinces. About 6.8 million of those people are native speakers of Afrikaans, while the rest speak it as a second language. In Namibia there were 127,000 speakers of Afrikaans in 2018, mainly in the Hardap and Khomas regions in the south of the country. It is used in schools and is officially recognized. Other countries with significant numbers of Afrikaans speakers include Zamnbia, Australia, New Zealand, the USA, Eswatini, and the Netherlands. Afrikaans retains some features of 18th century Dutch, together with vocabulary from various Bantu and Khoisan languages and also from Portugese and Malay.
