Afrikaans
also called CAPE DUTCH, West Germanic
language of South Africa, developed from 17th-century Netherlandic (Dutch)
by the descendants of European (Dutch, German, and French) colonists,
indigenous Khoisan peoples, and African and Asian slaves in the Dutch colony
at the Cape of Good Hope. Afrikaans and English are the only Indo-European
languages among the many official languages of South Africa. Although
Afrikaans is very similar to Netherlandic, it is clearly a separate
language, differing from Standard Netherlandic in its sound system and its
loss of case and gender distinctions. (Encyclopędia
