In this video we look at difference between the W, F and V sounds in Afrikaans. The W sound in Afrikaans is a sound that is made with the teeth and your lip. Your vocal cords are also used to make the sound.
The V and the F sound in Afrikaans do not involve the vocal chords, it is a soft sound. They V and F sound are also pronounced exactly the same in Afrikaans. For example "Vrydag" is spelled with a V and "fantasties" is spelled with an F.
So to summarize, the W has sound and the V and F have no sound.
