Verandering vind plaas of ons daarvan hou of nie en ongeag of ons iets daaromtrent doen. Môre sal anders wees as vandag. Ons kan weerstand bied, maar dit is 'n bietjie soos om in 'n rivier te staan en die water te probeer terughou - nutteloos. Ons het 'n keuse om te kyk hoe verandering passief om ons gebeur, of om deel te neem en dit te lei.
Die meeste mense wat sê dat hulle nie van verandering hou nie, beteken dat hulle nie daarvan hou wanneer dit met hulle gebeur nie, maar hulle gee nie om as hulle die verandering is nie. Ons sal eerder die wisselaar as die verandering-ee wees. Verandering vind plaas of ons daarvan hou of nie en ongeag of ons iets daaromtrent doen. Môre sal anders wees as vandag.

Diegene met 'n groei-ingesteldheid sien moeilike probleme as uitdagings wat opgelos moet word, en omhels dit met entoesiasme en vasberadenheid. Diegene met 'n vaste ingesteldheid sien moeilike probleme as 'n pyn in die boude en is geneig om op te gee voordat hulle begin. Diegene met 'n groei-ingesteldheid verwelkom verandering terwyl diegene met 'n vaste ingesteldheid dit weerstaan.
Veranderinge vind plaas op alle vlakke, van eenvoudig tot kompleks; of die minuskule transformasies van ons breinselle na die politieke krisisse wat oor die wêreld afspeel. Sommige veranderinge kan ons bestuur, sommige kan ons beïnvloed, maar realisties is die meeste buite ons beheer. Statisties min van ons sal die geskiedenis van die wêreld op 'n belangrike manier verander. Individueel kan ons nie oorlog, armoede, hebsug en korrupsie uitroei nie. Ek sal nie 'n geneesmiddel vir kanker uitvind of die opiaatkrisis oplos nie. Maar ek kan myself verander. En deur myself te verander, kan ek 'n groter, meer positiewe impak op my wêreld hê – die een waarin ek eintlik leef.
Ons kan verandering lei en ons wêreld 'n beter plek maak as ons by onsself begin. Om te leer om 'n beter eggenoot, ouer, sakepersoon, leier, verkoopspersoon, filantroop, afrigter en vrywilliger te word, sal my in staat stel om meer by te dra tot my gesin, my gemeenskap en my bedryf. Deur positiewe verandering in my lewe in te nooi, deur verandering te inisieer, kan ek dalk ander positief beïnvloed.
All afrikaans infinitive do not look exactly like the present form, instead there is an infinitive construction:
Notably these infinitives are remarkably like the english full infinitives to play and to have played
Note that just like English, Afrikaans has a short or bare infinitive form that does look exactly like the present form.

I am a native afrikaans speaker, but would still like having the input of other speakers before editing these comments into the article. -- payxystaxna 14:10, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
About the preterite form, the page says: "The preterite has been completely replaced by the perfect. Once again, the verb wees is the only exception to this rule, which admits the preterite form was." Immediately after that, there's a list of preterite forms (sou/kon/wis etc.) That's confusing. Perhaps someones who speaks Afrikaans can improve this.
I seem to remember being told that, while Dutch has "naar school", Afrikaans has IPA /skweltu/ - not sure how it's written... If true, is this an influence from one of the substratum languages? Thanks. Jpaulm 14:44, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Toe of course is the Afrikaans cognate of the English to and they sound very similar, it is just that the word order is slightly different, literally 'Every morning walk I school to'. Booshank 12:57, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Can I use past participles as attributives in Afrikaans as much as in German or Dutch? For example, can I say: die deursoeke woning (die durchsuchte Wohnung, de doorzochte woning)?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.52.147.222 ( talk) 14:48, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

I am aware that Afrikaans is a very anylitcal language and that it indeed is relatively simple compared to the other Indo-European languages, but I cannot find a reference to back up this fact. I have accessed the first book referenced in he article using google books, but did not find any comparative linguistic treatment of the language.

Does someone have an example of a sentence that contains everything in STOMPI (Subject, v1, time, object, manner, place, v2, infinitive)? Maybe this is a good example in the article to fully explain what the rule is? Lund gren 8 15:13, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

In the sample-sentence above the last two elements "gebêre" and "om dit weg te pak" is a duplication. It more or less translate to "...were put away (in order) to put it away". I would have replaced "om dit weg te pak" with something different? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.127.167.59 ( talk) 22:16, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
The part of nouns discussing how plurals are formed is a bit skeletal in my opinion. It doesn't even state how Afrikaans most commonly creates plurals, such as the removal of a vowel +e in nouns where diphthongs aa, ee, uu and oo can be found is used, eg. aap (monkey) -> ape, meer (lake) -> mere, muur (wall) -> mure, boom (tree) -> bome. Nor the the doubling of the consonant +e in cases where the noun ends on a consonant, eg. tak (branch) -> takke.
Another thing I would like to see a bit more elaborated upon is possessive adjectives (my/myne, jou/joune, sy/syne/haar/hare, ons/ons s'n, julle/julle s'n, hulle/hulle s'n)...
And why is diminutives not even touched upon? <insert shocked emoticon here>
I would appreciate seeing these things added by someone else more capable, but I'll add it if noone else does or want to. CeNobiteElf ( talk) 18:59, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
I have located a dangling ref and hidden it, replacing each with a citation needed tag. This has been done because we have a reference pointing to a sources that is not recorded in the article. Please feel free to contact me if you need assistance fixing this. - Aussie Article Writer ( talk)
is werd really a rarely used preterite form in Afrikaans? It doesn't appear in the corpus at viva-afrikaans.org (the word does appear with the meaning worth, but not as the preterite of word). Wis does not appear in that corpus either (except with the meaning erase), but the AWS 2017 woordelys at least contains it, which it doesn't for werd. In my experience, dog is relatively common, had is much more rare but not unheard of, while wis is at least as archaic as mog (which is already indicated as archaic in the table of the modal verbs). But werd, I don't think is an Afrikaans word at all. (Example of wis and dog being used in a Kuifie comic here) 80.114.156.101 ( talk) 20:28, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
