cause, johannesburg really sounds german
As you do.
its dutch
well
dutch and german are quite similar
potatoe/potat-oe i suppose
if you understand german AND english, there is a big chance you will understand dutch
Sure, not 100% of it
but "burg" is just german for castle. And johannes is a german name
Hamcastle 😏
@Redneo I would say it is germanic not german
are many of you guys USA based?

EU based here (undisclosed country)
but i wager you may have figured that 😄

this is going to sound really stupid, since i was born and raised in SA. What is it like being the majority race in a country
cause it fucking sucks here
@4AM_critter 🐉 sure
@4AM_critter 🐉 but when i heard "johannesberg" in some movies or series, it allways seemed german to me.
that was like 400yrs ago!?
@4AM_critter 🐉 of course it isnt, but it sounds so german that i havened given it a second thought in my past
A bit less than that but yea. It's a wound that no one wants to let be so it never really heals.
apartheid ended on 94, still fresh for the black majority here but in 25yrs the gov has done NOTHING to help their people except loot and blame white people
instead of leaning on the apartheid crutch they call it white monopoly capital
apartheid... what did that really mean?
The dutch and the black souht africans of the time did work together from the very beginning
a policy or system of segregation or discrimination on grounds of race
like
I would say I have never considered myself of the nation majority. It is only later after I started travelling and noticed the culture clash after I came home. It has changed my opinion. I no longer support multi-culture. I am now in favor of integration, i.e. the assimilation of the host nation culture. @Taliz
the dutch were the first in south africa
not any blacks
nope
the khoi san were native to south africa
then other black tribes from the north showed up
then the dutch
im pretty sure the dutch and the khoi san worked together in claiming more territory over the northern africans
i wonder if the lack of intergration is why the Brits fear the muslims so much
or... central africans but north of htme
