    Trane en Karmosyn Fluweel

    https://books2read.com/TCV-Afrikaans

    Wanneer moord en raaisel by die Operahuis begin, weet een vrou wie daaragter sit, en wat werklik onder die masker lê. Geheime, leuens en tragedie sing ‘n kragtige lied in hierdie ‘might have been’-verhaal.


    Trane en bloedrooi fluweel


    Mev Giry bevind haarself in die tragedie wat by die Operahuis afspeel; misterie en moord bekruip die gange en, word gesê, ‘n spook spook die plek. Giry ken die waarheid, want sy onthou die ingehokte man wat sy soveel jare gelede ontmoet het. Dit is haar storie, hulle storie.

    Wanneer moord en raaisel by die Operahuis begin, weet een vrou wie daaragter sit, en wat werklik onder die masker lê. Geheime, leuens en tragedie sing ‘n kragtige lied in hierdie ‘might have been’-verhaal.

    ’n Kort, tragiese verhaal gebaseer op karakters uit Phantom of the Opera. Wenner van die NN Light Book Heaven-toekenning vir beste kortverhaal 2020

  3. #CapeHawthorn aka #WaterHawthorn.
    It's native to #SouthAfrica. People there have long cultivated & harvested the buds & flowers as food. It's used to make #WaterblommetjieBredie - a traditional South African stew. The #Afrikaans name of this traditional cultural dish translates to "stew of little water flowers".

    It's not a widely known edible water plant here. It's delicious. If you enjoy green beans - you'll probably enjoy eating Cape hawthorn buds/flowers too.

  13. My partner: Why does the weather lady keep saying to buy a coat? 🤔 In Afrikaans buy a coat means very cold. So I guess you could buy a coat when it’s "baie koud". 😂 #Afrikaans

  18. So we all know what the English word "defenestrate" means, right? If you didn't, it's the act of throwing someone out of a window.

    But South Africans, my dear South Africans, have you ever considered that the word sounds a little bit like the Afrikaans phrase, "die venster uit"?

    I'm never going to unhear that now. Never. 🙈

  24. I have not found many resources & speaker in #afrikaans I like to get accostumed to languages by reading them or trying to read them regularily For afrikaans I make the assumption I can recyle a huge part of my reading nederlands. (I think I can read B2 but with some help & it's domain dependent)

  26. Found some signage in Melbourne CBD greeting me in one of my local South Africanlanguages, from the other side of the Indian Ocean. ‘Goeiedag’ means ‘good day’. In Afrikaans. Unfortunately, no ‘Sawubona’ (isiZulu) or ‘Molo’ (isiXhosa), but hey, beggars can’t be choosers.
