Learn German with SpeedyConkiwi #8.1 [difficult words - please see sidebar for detailed info!]

June 19, 2010 - 6:58 pm 25 Comments

let me know what you think!
when i had the idea of people submitting words, at first i was thinking i was just gonna do one video, pronouncing a whole lot of words in a short time. but once i started thinking about pronunciation problems in general, i felt it may be a lot clearer if i explained a bit more about the words?
would you agree or prefer a short video with just WORD after WORD?
hope you’re all good,
xx

covering:

Learn to Speak Afrikaans in 5 minutes!

May 26, 2010 - 8:30 am 6 Comments

Afrikaans is a South African language originating from the Dutch spoken by settlers in Africa in the seventeenth century. Despite the fact that Afrikaans developed in Africa and is unique to the region, it is classified as Low Franconian West Germanic due to the fact that it originates from Dutch. Aside from English, Afrikaans deviates the furthest from the grammars of the other Germanic languages. It is mainly spoken in South Africa and Namibia, with smaller populations of speakers living in Australia, Botswana, Canada, Lesotho, Malawi, New Zealand, Swaziland, the United States, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Due to emigration and migrant labour, there are possibly over 100,000 Afrikaans speakers in the United Kingdom. It is the primary language used by two ethnic groups in South Africa: the Afrikaans people and the Coloureds. You can learn to speak it in less than 5 minutes! And the best thing of all, it’s not a difficult language to learn! =)
