Hello family. You wouldn't be considered coloured in South Africa. The only time a melanated person can be identified as coloured is when they speak Afrikaans( Dutch version)as a home language. Otherwise most coloured people are of mixed race( mulattos)

I'd have to agree with this comment because recently we had arguments on the internet about black people having a problem with being called a coloured since because it's derogatory in the U.S. I am a South African coloured man from cape town and people in the U.S didn't even know that people like us existed. I only understood late that it's wrong to call black people coloured because there's history behind it. So for you to say that you wanna be considered "coloured" makes it condratictory on your end. When you come to visit South Africa. You will still be called black. You won't be denied your own identity and you will still be welcomed with open arms.

Correction: English and Afrikaans are not the most spoken languages in South Africa but Zulu and Xhosa are. African Tribes tend to speak in their mother tongue within the household. However, English is used as a medium of exchange, for educational purposes, in the corporate world, and of course the majority of people can speak English but mostly when it's necessary. Afrikaans is not that popular anymore it's often associated with the Boers (colonizers). It's also coloured’s first language, so there's HOPE! I'm originally from Limpopo province in the North but currently living in Western Cape (Cape Town) for Work. I grew up eating Mopani Worms, so hit me up when you arrive in South Africa 🇿🇦 I'll get you some 😅✌️🏿

But Rudzani English and Afrikaans are spoken by more people in South Africa than the other languages 🤷🏽‍♂️. It is also true Zulu has more first language speakers followed by Xhosa than the other language groups. The reason English and Afrikaans has more speakers than the other languages is besides our mother tongues/ first languages, all of us use those languages as second language speakers especially English in the workplace.

@rudzanimunyai2090 Жыл бұрын

@@mhlave2440 You miss the point, I'll repeat it for you, those who can only speak these languages do so only when it's absolutely necessary. This is not about the ABILITY/ being able to speak but the most used in our daily lives. For example people in Provinces. The majority of the South African population does not live in big cities, they can go weeks or months without having to speak English or Afrikaans. These are foreign languages and when South Africans like you validate such information to people who do not understand our country it paints a bad picture.

There are more Batswana in South Africa than in Botswana. I like it when he mentioned that "they know how to handle money well". Bafokeng who are Batswana are very much progressive in business. They are led by King Leruo Molotlegi and they are one of the richest tribes in South Africa. Their land is the biggest producer of platinum in the world. They have stake in the mines and they also have many other business ventures that they invested in. Their businesses largely benefits their people. They've build a stadium (used in world cup 2010), hotels, schools, libraries etc. They give bursaries to young people in their communities. They actually don't need government to provide services to their people. They are not perfect but as compared to other Kingdoms in the country they are miles ahead when it comes to looking after their people.

Sometimes the two of you would like to do a thing, like take a swim, together and you can't leave the baby alone... Hence a nanny. You should also do a brandy tasting at KWV. Stellenbosch is the most famous for it's wine farms, but there are many others. Franschhoek, Paarl, Somerset West, Durbanville are some others you should try to visit.

The Bunny Chow is strickly from Durban, there's a whole history around its origins, but basically it is a 1/4 or 1/2 loaf of super fresh white bread filled with Super Spicey Durban Curry. The curries range from Mutton (mature lamb), Chicken, Beef, and Butter Beans. The curries are from the rich history/influence of the Indian population we have in Durban. The bunny chow is quite popular in most of SA although in Jozzi they have created their own version known as the Kota or 👉(1/4) 👉quarter Its basically a 1/4 loaf of white bread filled with all sorts except curry e.g. Chips, fried egg, burger paties, Russian sausage, grilled chicken breast, Vienna sausage, fried/grilled palony etc slathered in sauces, just Google seach Kota 😂
