The development of a language can be a very boring topic, but sometimes it can also be exciting. While I was never interested in the development of the English language, I often liked to learn some facts about the development of the German language (maybe since it's my native language). It's nice to see that German has influenced such a young language. Maybe I'd even be able to understand some Afrikaans and maybe it's even worth a try to learn it.

This country is a cultural boiling pot like none, so many interesting stories ; struggle for independence, new discoveries, many different influences makes it a unique place , so also the language carries all this exciting details in it. I will definitely start learning Afrikaans .. one day ;)
