2. Re: Yes !

..don't understand everything, but maybe you could translate the
documentation and the tutorials that are around, in africaans? It could be a
great help for other beginners from your country (Transvaal?)

Hy,

I know South-African is a little different than Dutch, but are you sure =
you didn't make any
mistakes in some words?
And what do the words 'Ek' and 'Gedog' mean?

Bye,
PQ

Well, you're quite right .. it sure isn't the same as dutch _written_ .. but
when you pronounce it, it sounds like a dutch by some who's choking .. lol
... no, this is what it meant:

I had thought (that) I was the only african person who programs in Euphoria.
It feels much beter now I know there is some one (else) from the Euphoria
community (that) comes from South-Africa

You can find all the words except the ones in parentheses. Interesting
though, the English, unlike the dutch and afrikaans has a past tense verb in
the sub-sentence ( .. I _was_ the only .. )  .. and the in English you have
to start the verb after the subject, while in Dutch you're not even allowed
in sub-sentences, and in Afrikaans, it seems, you're not allowed to do so in
the last subsentence .. . ..    then again, maybe the sentence just wasn't
right.

No , my sentence was right . And Afrikaans does not sound like Dutch .
