Drie, om presies te wees, Gloudina, en jy het 'pragtige' uitgelaat.
Maar die uitspraak het niks te make met die toestand waarin ek was nie (anders
as gewoonlik), maar is sommer gedoen uit heimweë na vergange se dae, en om te
demonstreer hêe goed ek drinkliedjies ken! En buitendien het die uo pragtige
kindertjies darem al geslaap.
Maar terwyl ons nou 'n misverstand oor die betekenis van 'ordentlik gehad het,
net die volgende:
Onlangs het ons hier te lande te doen gehad met 'n senior staatsamptenaar wat
in die hof getuig het dat hy 'n 'eerlike leun' vertel het. Nou het ons nog een
in dié trant bygekry:
Josiah 'Fingers' Rabotapi, die beweerde meesterbrein agter die reeks transito
rooftogte in SA is verlede week deur die polisie doodgeskiet tydens sy
arrestasie (blykbaar 'n pistool uitgepluk en op die polisie begin skiet). Sy
begrafnis was Donderdag in Soweto. Die TV-aanbieder, Themba Makaleni het die
volgende te sê gehad (volgens Beeld):
"Hy was wel 'n geheimsinnige man, maar as hy 'n misdadiger was, was hy 'n
ORDENTLIKE een"(!)
'n Hegte vriend van hom, John Xapa, het met trane in sy oë gesê: "Rabotapi het
van die rykes gevat en aan die armes gegee."
Nou, my vrae. Het Makaleni 'ordentlik' in my of jou konteks gebruik, Gloudina.
Ten spyte daarvan dat Robin Hood, so vér my kennis strek, nie die rykes in die
proses vermoor het nie, steek daar enige waarheid in die gerugte dat Soweto
herdoop gaan word na Sherwood Forest?

"CHARGES: SCHEME TOOK POOR IMMIGRANTS' MONEY
New York - Prosecutors Thursday charged a South African man with posing as
an attorney and defrauding hundreds of immigrants of their life savings by
promising them legal documents needed to live and work in the United States.
Curtis van Stuyvensant, 44, is accused of stealing more than $350,000 in
fees from about 300 West African and Caribbean immigrants from March 1997 to
June 1998. Van Stuyvesant was arrested Thursday in the Manhatten Criminal
Court building just as he was about to represent a client in a domestic
violence case"

> Dis debateerbaar of die mengeltaal wat jy nou

"...wat jy nou as 'Afrikaans' aandui..." = Engels: "that you now designate
as 'Afrikaans'". Afrikaans sou wees: "as 'Afrikaans' benoem" of,
doodeenvoudig, "wat jy nou 'Afrikaans' noem".
> (Boy
> van die suburbs, inderdaad!)
=Engels "Boy van die suburbs, indeed!" Die woord "inderdaad" word nie op
hierdie wyse in idiomatiese Afrikaans gebruik nie. In hierdie konstruksie
sou Afrikaans eerder iets gebruik soos "kan jy nou meer!".

"wie hierdie mengeltaal vir homself toelaat" = Engels "who allows himself
this mixed language". Afrikaans sou wees "wie homself hierdie mengeltaal
veroorloof/toe-eien".
(Die "vir" in "wie...vir homself toelaat" is natuurlik erg argaiese
Afrikaans wat miskien nog net in streektaal behoue gebly het.)

"ver suiwerder" = Engels "far more pure". Afrikaans sou wees "veel
suiwerder".
