[@danielvanr.8681]

​​@@YourAfrikaansChannelBut the subtitles in the video write it as two words (1:39). Ek dag dat hierdie woord is altyd vas geskryf? Also, it's interesting how, according to my research, Afrikaners tend to divide the word as goeie+naand, implicating that the original Dutch was _navond_ instead of _avond._ I always thought that the Dutch word-final "n" surviving in this particular case was so it could act like a linking consonant between what would otherwise be a triphtong: goeieaand, /,xuje.'a:nt/. 🤔

[@YourAfrikaansChannel]

Should actually be one word, yes.

[@marchauchler1622]

De verschil is niet groot tussen de Nederlands en Afrikaans. Grooties uit Duitsland

[@YourAfrikaansChannel]

@marchauchler1622 Dankie vir die kommentaar.

[@eisbeinGermany]

@@marchauchler1622 but if you speak Afrikaans fluently its very far removed from German, as a born South African moving to Germany i first had to do a German language course before I could apply for the permit, I battled with the course as I kept on trying to use Afrikaans words when i didn't know the right German word, I nearly gave up on the course as one must have a 60 % pass rate before receiving the certificate

[@desydukuk291]

I learned some Afrikaans on OFM radio's chat room, when they had one. I remember informal, "Dag se" (Dagse?) as a greeting. Is that correct? Maybe sometimes, "Ganit?' with people I knew there.

[@YourAfrikaansChannel]

It is correct to use dagsê. This is a colloquial term and very informal.
Ganit is assimilation for 'hoe gaan dit?' This means that the sentence is contracted into one word, very similar to the English 'howzit' - how is it? Thanks for the interest.
