WHAT DOES AFRIKAANS MEAN IN ROMANIAN?

Afrikaans

Limba afrikaans

Afrikaans is a low French language, derived from non-Dutch, mostly spoken in South Africa and Namibia, but with speakers in Angola, Botswana, Swaziland, Zimbabwe and Zambia. Due to emigration and a constant migrant labor force, there are over 100,000 Afrikaans speakers in the UK. Other significant African-speaking communities exist in Brussels, Belgium, Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Perth, Toronto, Canada and Auckland, New Zealand. It is the primary language used by two ethnic groups in South Africa, "afrikaners" and mulatri or kleurlinge / bruinmense. Geographically speaking, Afrikaans is the language of the majority population of South Africa's third west. Afrikaans is also the most widespread primary language of the southern third of Namibia. Afrikaans is the most widely spoken language across both countries, considering the entire population, although overall there is a significant increase in the quality and frequency of use of English by younger generations.

Limba afrikaans este o limbă franconiană joasă, derivată din neerlandeză, vorbită mai ales în Africa de Sud și Namibia, dar având vorbitori și în Angola, Botswana, Swaziland, Zimbabwe și Zambia. Datorită emigrării și unei constante forță de muncă migratoare, există peste 100.000 vorbitori de afrikaans în Marea Britanie. Alte comunități semnificative de vorbitori de afrikaans există în Brussels, Belgia, Amsterdam, Olanda, Perth, Toronto, Canada și Auckland, Noua Zeelandă. Este limba primară utilizată de două grupuri etnice din Africa de Sud, „afrikaners” și mulatri sau kleurlinge/bruinmense. Geografic vorbind, limba afrikaans este limba majorității populației din treimea vestică a Africii de Sud. Afrikaans este, de asemenea, cea mai răspândită limbă primară din treimea sudică a Namibiei. Afrikaans este cea mai răspândit vorbită limbă de-a lungul ambelor țări, considerând întreaga populație, deși se poate remarca, per ansamblu, o creștere semnificativă a calității și frecvenței utilizării limbii engleze de către generațiile mai tinere.
