[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 672978, member: 39190"] Don't be coy. I'd assume no offense is intended and Juan isn't the type of guy to take offense but while it could be an honest mistake it just comes across as a little.. unprofessional? Us Afrikaners are a little over-sensitive and over-protective where our language and customs are concerned. I mean we are not even the biggest minority in our own country and don't have a 'homeland' like many if not most minorities across the globe. If any it would probably historically be the Netherlands and surrounds (roughly a shrinked version of the Frankish kingdom) but TBH after losing the war for freedom we now have just as much in common with the Anglosphere a with the Netherlands, France and Germany. Probably more if I have to be honest with myself though we don't see any of those as 'homelands' in that we'd feel like strangers coming in though we are very adaptable and resourceful people as a rule.
