What does the word "Afrikaans" mean. Sorry if I sound dumb but I'm just
curious. I work for the newspaper and saw an article about that. I
guess it's a class of people. I don't know, someone please help.

Just another point of view:
As Afrikaner (and more so, a South African) I believe people define
themselves - rather than BE defined by others. This was the case in our
country's sad history, and many people still have that habit it seems.
Many people of various skin color - other than white - also call themselves
Afrikaners.
Mooi bly.

Good Morning Lady Ice,
Afrikaans is the language spoken by manny people in South Africa. It is verry similar to Dutch or Vlaams. Afrikaners, is the white people who speak Afrikaans. You alos get a lot of Coloured people who speak Afrikaans.
