Did you know that you can sponsor an Afrikaans word in the Woordeboek van die Afrikaanse Taal, generally known as the WAT? It is the largest descriptive Afrikaans dictionary and doesn’t only cover standard Afrikaans but also varieties such as Kaaps and Namakwalands. Thanks to two sponsors, Bongi Mbonambi is now part-owner of the word “kant”. Lester Kiewit speaks to Ohilip Louw, chief editor of Woordeboek Van Die Afrikaans Taal.
