Despite being considered an African language, Afrikaans is technically more aligned with West Germanic languages, tracing descent from the Indo-European language family due to its origins in Dutch. Afrikaans and English are the only languages of this category to have official status in South Africa, alongside many other African languages.
Afrikaans is technically a creole language, containing influences from a variety of African, colonial, and seafaring languages:
Khoi
Xhosa
Malagsy
San
Malay
English
Dutch
Portuguese
French
Afrikaans is one of the youngest official languages in the world. It was formally recognized as a real language in 1925 and enshrined as an official language in the country’s Constitution as a wholly separate language from Dutch in 1983. It is currently beaten out for the title by Haitian Creole (1987).
Afrikaans is written in Latin script. At an earlier point of the language’s history, South Africa’s Muslim Cape Malay community developed a version written in Arabic script. There are 74 extant texts, and is the only Germanic language with a writing system in Arabic script.
The English language has a number of loanwords from Afrikaans, such as aardvark, trek, and, perhaps most infamously, apartheid. Some more examples:
Meerkat
Hartebeest
Wildebeest
Commando
Bergwind
Veld
Haai / Goeie dag – Good day
Totsiens – Goodbye
Ja – Yes
Nee – No
Asseblief Please
Dankie – Thank You
Verskoon my – Excuse me
Jammer – Sorry
Gesondheid! – Cheers! (Good health)
Praat jy Engels? – Do you speak English?
Ek praat nie Afrikaans nie – I don’t speak Afrikaans.
