Afrikaans is a cross-border language, spoken by large communities in Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe.
Afrikaans has over seven million native speakers, despite being one of the world’s youngest official languages.
Afrikaans is the mother tongue of many South Africans. Like several other African languages, it is an official language in Namibia and Zimbabwe, and a co-official language in Botswana.
It is widely spoken by groups spanning the full social spectrum, from the poor to the rich, from rural to urban communities, and by both the uneducated and the more educated.
Although Afrikaans used to be referred to as “Cape Dutch” because it originated as an off-shoot from the Dutch language, Afrikaans is recognised as a language distinct from Dutch, with which it is still sometimes confused.
In fact, modern-day Dutch speakers find it slightly difficult to understand as there are some major differences between the two languages such as grammar and spelling.
Our Afrikaans Transcription Services range from a same-day delivery for Afrikaans transcriptions of personal documents, to really speedy turnarounds for bigger projects including outreach work.
To get your Afrikaans Transcription started quickly simply, fill in the above form for an instant quote and to be contacted by a language expert.
To make your transcribed content more accessible and searchable we can time-code your transcript based on the intervals you specify.
