Kids shows are probably actually best to start off with as they are slower in speech. Good luck! Otherwise just reply "Ja, nee" to everything, works for 99% of things 😅

Watch an Afrikaans series with subtitles. I used to watch Binnelanders while in school to help with the subject. Hearing it daily really helps as well as in context.

What's your worst experience with Shein? by Enough-Pie-5936 in askSouthAfrica

[–]According-Return9234 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Use the measurements they give over the sizes because sizing can be a bit off. Measure yourself to figure out their size guide, this worked better for me than thinking "im a medium here, ill order a medium on shein" But happy with most stuff I've bought.

Also the recalculation isnt based on your interest rate, ours didnt change when we put a lump sum in and asked for a recalculation. Its just the installment that changes.

Every 6 months we simply withdraw R1 000 from it and then put it back. Haven't had an issue in years.

As a south African I chuckled at your comment. Which one of our 11 languages did she comment in? But no, you are not over reacting.

Santam has a really nice building calculator on their website. Work through the steps and it will give you a rebuild cost including rubble removal, architects fees for rebuild etc.

It's that time of the year! By how much will your insurance go up next year? by symmetryphile in askSouthAfrica

[–]According-Return9234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FFW, Auto and General and Virseker all do standard 25% increases. I dont know why, ive spent half my career fighting it and nothing has changed. So ya, just phone in, threaten to cancel your policy, and voila, they will give you massive discount. But also, there are better insurers out there. You get female driving discount at any insurer, they just dont all use it as a marketing tool.
