Dink, praat en leer in Afrikaans was die tema van die Afrikaanse Taalraad (ATR) se jeugberaad wat onlangs by Ho\u00ebrskool Stellenbosch aangebied is. Die beraad was daarop gemik om trots op Afrikaans onder jongmense te laat opvlam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Verskeie organisasies wat help om Afrikaans te beskerm en te bevorder was by die onvergeetlike geleentheid betrokke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Toppresteerders in Afrikaans as huistaal, van New Orleans Sekond\u00ear in Paarl-Oos en ander skole dwarsoor die Boland, het die beraad bygewoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit het op \u2019n ho\u00eb noot begin met dr. Conrad Steenkamp van die ATR wat eerste aan die woord was. Hy het vertel van die kokerboom as simbool vir Afrikaans en die belangrikheid van die wortels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Willa Boezak het op sy beurt die jongmense in die gehoor gaande gehad oor die insiggewende onderwerp van identiteit \u2013 iets waaroor baie jongmense vandag verward is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cJou taal is deel van jou, deel van jou menswees, deel van jou identiteit, deel van siel, hart, kultuur en erfenis. Om jou taal in \u2019n boks te druk, is net so goed as om \u2019n gedeelte van jou menswees of siel of \u2019n stuk van jou prys te gee! Jy is te bang om Afrikaans te praat omdat dit anders klink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cJy verruil jou taal vir Engels, veral ons studente, dan klink daardie Engels nie eens lekker nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Boezak het die entoesiastiese jongmense aangemoedig om hul taal vrylik te praat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPraat jou Nama-Afrikaans, praat jou Afrikaaps, praat jou Ofrikaans, want dit is deel van jou, dit is deel van jou identiteit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHulle s\u00ea my taal is te plat, maar wie\u2019s hulle?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die aanlyn-platform Afrikaans.com het drie video\u2019s vervaardig om spesifieke stereotiepes in die taal uit te wys en op \u2019n humoristiese manier diversiteit in Afrikaans te beskerm en die uniekheid en mooiheid daarvan te verken, te erken en vrylik te versprei. Di\u00e9 video\u2019s is reeds gewild in sosiale media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Op \u2019n ernstiger noot het Fiona van Kerwel die gehoor aan die dink gesit oor die toekoms. Van Kerwel, wat by die Universiteit Stellenbosch se WOW-projek (Woorde Open W\u00earelde) betrokke is, het \u2019n bietjie gesels oor loopbaankeuses en studiemoontlikhede. Die fokuspunte was beroepe en die invloed van die vierde industri\u00eble revolusie daarop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nog \u2019n punt wat sy sterk uitgelig het, was die verskil tussen \u2019n loopbaan en \u2019n werk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cJou werk is wat jy nou doen. Jou loopbaan is wat verspreid voor jou l\u00ea, wat jy nog moet uitkerf en verken.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Een van die belangrikste gesprekke van die dag het daarna gevolg met \u2019n baie roerende praatjie deur Charledine van der Merwe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy is \u2019n projekbestuurder by die Vriende van Afrikaans (VVA), \u2019n afdeling van die ATKV. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cKinders tussen nul en ses jaar oud moet vir die ouer baie belangrik wees, want dis in hierdie tyd dat die kind goed begin ontwikkel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Van der Merwe is dit kritiek belangrik dat kinders in hierdie ouderdomsgroep blootgestel word aan boeke en lees. En natuurlik moet dit \u2019n lekker boek wees wat interessant sal wees vir die kind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van der Merwe noem dat formele leer by lees begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMaak gebruik van die vier L\u2019e: Luister, Lees, Leer, Lekker.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Charledine het dit duidelik gemaak dat leerders slegs goed kan presteer wanneer hulle in die vroe\u00eb jare van kindwees aan boeke blootgestel word. .<\/span> William Sezoe is \u2019n graad 12-leerder aan die New Orleans Sekond\u00ear Skool.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dink, praat en leer in Afrikaans was die tema van die Afrikaanse Taalraad (ATR) se jeugberaad wat onlangs by Ho\u00ebrskool Stellenbosch aangebied is.
