It depends on the meaning of the word "efficient"
how you would translate it into Afrikaans. If a
person is efficient, you can translate it also with
"bekwaam." If a process is efficient, you will
translate it with something like "doeltreffend."
Our Bosman and Van der Merwe gives the
following suggestions: voltreffend, doeltreffend,
kragdadig, geskik, saaklik.
