‘Not a single African’: Tweeps on ‘Real Housewives van Pretoria’

[TheChamp]

Hoekom is dit nie Die Regte Huisvroue van Pretoria nie?

Because no one will know what it's all about and won't work well for marketing, it's about the brand of Real Housewives.

Is it not supposed to be egte?

 

[Defonotaltaccount]

Seems to me that at least one of these woman were born in Africa.
That makes them African doesnt it ?
Im sure some official documents would also class them as African born.

You guys afrikaans suck

It is Ware huisvroue

if that show has a brand then the brand is worth dirt.

 

[Vrotappel]

Have you ever been to Pretoria? Coloured people exist in other places than Cape Town.

Plenty black people speak Afrikaans not just white and coloured people.

But good job being ignorant about the rest of South Africa

Shame

 

[Harmonic]

I'd imagine in Pretoria the number of white folks natively speaking Afrikaans and living ethnically as Afrikaans people eclipses any other race.

Now in the Western Cape it's a different story, but this isn't Trashy Housewives of Cape Town.

Not a f**, have you been to Pretoria recently?

Any Afrikaans person will know what Regte Huisvroue is about. Plenty of Afrikaans shows on kyknet with Afrikaans titles based on English shows.

Is it not supposed to be egte?

No.

What language is this now?

I agree with you, men also deserve their own show where they strut about with manly tools pretending to know what they are doing, your envy is totally justified.

 

[Cosmik Debris]

Do you not know what if they so desire they can do it means?

If it where up to me the term coloured would be abolished it's a silly term that was made to divide people, but has now created it's own culture and identity.

Anyway the point is still dumb to defend.

Hey, you were the one that said you know of no black Afrikaners. I just offered to show you some close enough to you for a visit to see for yourself.

 

[skimread]

What language is this now?

Are you serious? Correct translation is Die Ware Huisvroue van Pretoria. Not die regte huisvroue.

I might have burnt down my school because I was taught in Afrikaans but that doesn't mean I didn't listen in class.

 

[Cosmik Debris]

Is that the one where they try doing US accents while pretending to be sophisticated, and then do both extremely badly?

I have no idea. It looks like some dinner party where they make food and speak shyte. I always find something else to do.

No.

Yeah maybe the owners are still testing the concept and if successful will be rolled out in all 11 official languages.

Wat is 'n housevrou?

Also Ware Huisvroue would be True Housewives. These are not regte egte ware huisvroue.

Long way to go to see a language I avoid.

What was your mark in Afrikaans in your final year? You cannot do direct translation like that. Otherwise your version is The Correct Housewives.

The most accurate translation is Ware. Even if you don't want to admit it. Don't be stubborn and refuse to admit you are wrong. It is not my fault you spent your time playing with your tottie at school while you should been studying.

Yet here you are, on a thread discussing a language you avoid.

Ware means true, not correct.

It's all being discussed in English and I don't have to hear it.

Houvrou?

As opposed to die Ouvrou?

 

[Howdy]

Long way to go to see a language I avoid.

Yet all upset before of the non-inclusion of Afrikaans speaking Cape Coloured person in The Real Housewives of Pretoria in Afrikaans?

What's next? One trans lady identifying as a housewife with refugee status from Somalia?
