Afrikaans is still much related to the way Dutch was spoken in the 17th century.

As a Dutchman I agree Afrikaans is a lot easier to understand than Frisian.

The Dutch complain about German grammar but don't realize Afrikaans has not only simplified grammar, writing but also no grammatical gender unlike Dutch itself.

Some old Dutch and South African friends said they could understand a lot of what each other said although it sounded very different.

Dankie vir die video Andy :)))<br>Afrikaans is my gunsteling taal, ek het dit self geleer (en dit het my ook gehelp om Nederlands te verstaan). Ek het twee keer Suid-Afrika besoek en ek sien uit daarna om eendag terug te keer ♥'n Pragtige land met baie vriendelike mense en 'n ryk kultuur ♥

I am a Belgian raised in the U. S. We speak Flemish, which is slightly different from Dutch, but is written the same, just pronounced a little different. I can understand Afrikaans, and, in fact, my Flemish, which I speak with an American accent, was mistaken for Afrikaans!
