As someone whose native language is German(Swiss German) and speaks fluently English. I sometimes end up whatching Dutch shorts/videos and don't realise it until a weird word comes up that is neither In Swiss, German or English. 😂😂 and from then i don't understand it. The brain is really funn

Afrikaans is not available in any app, but you can start with 'normal' dutch. In dutch the sentence is: mijn hand is in warm water...

Afrikaans derived from Dutch, because of settlers from the Netherlands in the 1700's. They settled in South Africa.

The languages are still very similar today.

Serbian words are pronounced exactly the way they are written but serbian grammar is freaking hard to learn.

Pronounced exactly as it’s written is a bit of a stretch.
I mean sure most words are simple to pronounce but if you only know English you’ll find sounds like uu and oë hard to say
In fact the word oë means eyes and oog mean eye.
It gets very confusing with diminutives like blom (flower) becomes blommetjie (little flower)
The tjie here is pronounced like the chie in chief
Slight differences in sound like vuur and vier are just annoying at times
The ie is like the ee in breeze while the uu is so similar that I can’t think of an English example that isn’t just the same as ie
Even simple ones like w is v and v is f but f is still f and only used at the beginning of words
The main thing that is torture to learn is the sentence structure where English has “The dog barked at the cat”
Afrikaans has “The dog ‘het’ for the cat ‘ge’bark”
Where het is to say they do so and ge is added to the start of the verb to say barked

Afrikaans is a pretty interesting language and is actually the youngest language in the world but is also currently dying out as most people in South Africa tend to just learn English as it is likely they’ll not stay in SA their whole lives, cause well no one’s ever heard about incredible companies like Apple and BMW coming out of SA.
There are several people who are actually South African and you wouldn’t realise it at a a first glance like Elon Musk.
