I am blessed to live in one of the most attractive and also vibrant countries in the world. I cant see me ever leaving this country unforcefully but even forcefully I will still put up a big fight. Cause no country in all my travels are prettier, more diverse and friendly than my beloved South-Africa. The truth, however, is that a man`s heart runs through his tummy and maybe this is the main reason why I will never leave this country for good. From butternut soup to Melktert a South African kitchen is a dangerous place to be if you love food.
I decided to introduce my country by also introducing its 11 official languages that are not just recognised but also honoured and respected in South-Africa. Being a South-African are all about accepting change, embracing it and standing together. We have a culinary cuisine that is developed from Indian straight through to the Netherlands, we have animals that are not just majestic but also almost distinct, not to even mention the fauna and flora that some are so rare you will find them only here. Yes, this is South-Africa the country on the tip of mother Africa but our drums of joys are in our people. That is why I decided to not only to discuss and translate a few English words in the dominant 4 languages in South Africa but rather all of them cause to experience South Africa completely are to at least understand here and there everyone in our country, however, English is our main language and will get you basically through the whole country without a hiccup or in a rare situation you probably would like to understand when someone shouts: Watch out for the LION or SHARK. Depending on where you are at that moment but whatever you do in that situation I suggest your first reaction must be run or swim as fast as you can to safety.
I decided to start you as a reader and traveller off with a few South African terms and words and the introduce the wonderful provinces to you. With each province, we visit we will also learn more about that particular region's primary language like for instance in Limpopo we will learn a few phrases in Tshivenda. But the main focus for me lies in the culinary part and there for I nominated a cuisine to a province, for example, Gauteng will have 5 recipes of authentic South African starters etc etc. Because we must be realistic as South-Africa are a hard country, we are different in many ways and because of this unique attribute a simple misunderstanding or naivety can get you in trouble and thats why the last section also discusses some safety tips while visiting.I hope this book will be helpful and enhance your experience in our country but do note that although I did my best to make the phrases and information as accurate as far as I possibly could I am not a professor or Language expert and had to ask the man on the street to translate for me a phrase in his mother tong that I must admit was an experience I will never forget. However, I would like to use this opportunity to thank UNISA Language department as well as Google Translate, that helped me to overcome some hiccups along the way and some Professors really went out of their way to assist me. As I learn something new almost every day while writing this book, I can only hope you get the same experience from this venture.
Happy travels, reading and cooking.
