Learning Safari Language

"aught" a word for zero.
Bastardized into "ought" and "odd"

Yup, just like agent double aught seven... :hmmmer:
 
Our (my wife and I's) favorite saying by our guide was "I am about to have a sense of humor failure" said, when things didn't go right.
 
A common positive Afrikaans remark

'Bakgat!' after a good shot/meal/experience ect. [loud gggg....] [a compliment after something good or well done,]
or in a greeting 'how are you?'-BAKGAT [=fine,very good,nice!]

or the opposite [a common negative remark,expressing disappointment]

'Gatvol' [ggg...]= I'm gatvol [fed-up] with this,[I don't want to do this anymore,]


'lekker'= nice,sweet,ok,tasty,good,enjoyable [depends on the context]
this food,or 'braai' [barbecue] is lekker
the holiday,trip,experience was 'lekker'

Regards,

..and if you hunt with me, sooner or later, you will hear 'koeksister', 'bobotie', 'kak skoot tjom', 'moertoe', 'vellies', 'fokken slang', 'jy's 'n yster Boet', 'vat hom fluffy', 'papnsous', 'houtkop', 'Silas..bliksem daai Ingelsman wat so snork met 'n skoen', 'hierriebakkievattikakkie' and 'hierdie ou sal nie 'n koei op die gat kan raakslaan met 'n banjo nie' ..

Another is "Braai Broodjie" meaning a sandwich filled with tomato, cheese, onions and chutney. Toasted on wooden coles and served with a braai/barbeque dinner/lunch. Who ever tasted this? My personal favorite!! braai-broodjies-sm.jpgIMG_3636.jpg

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
