Afrikaans-Nederlands-Vlaams

This blog is going to focus on my experiences with three different languages which have common roots and interconnections: Afrikaans (ZA), Nederlands (NL), and Vlaams (BE). I have never formally studied any of these languages, though I lived in The Netherlands for three years while working in Belgium. Later I visited South Africa twice for a total of 6 weeks with a lot of exposure to Afrikaans.

My website, http://www.larrymcelhiney.com has an Afrikaans page which contains some of my experiences. It also has a number of Internet links to Afrikaans. There is also a Travel page which details the timeframes for my travels outside of the United States.
