[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 365866, member: 39190"] 1 Because it is actually quite different and 2 the people speaking it don't consider themselves Dutch. At least myself and the Afrikaners/Boere I have dealt with don't for the most part. 3 Saying the people speaking an unique language can't call it what they want to takes away our right to self determination. I have almost as much French and German ancestry (combined) as I do Dutch. Also some Scottish and Malaysian but that's beside the point. The language has changed just too much with its isolation from Dutch in SA and the myriad influences from Portuguese etc etc to be considered simply a dialect. [/QUOTE]
