    As I've been reminded countless times by you guys, I do apologise! Just to put the word out: The video is entitled 'South African accent' but this is an Afrikaans accent and the vast majority of South Africans don't speak like this! Sorry for my lack of knowledge and hope you still enjoyed the video nonetheless🤪

      I second this! Very hard to nail the lingo if you're a foreigner. Look how hard Leonardo DiCaprio struggled in Blood Diamond. Considering Afrikaans is a West Germanic language, linked to English, he had some success. But, the Cape Coloured accent... I would LOVE to see them try, and a bigger representation is needed as it's so prevalent in the Afrikaans culture.
