Afrikaans is a strange language 30 comments

This is the original Afrikaans word for potato, aardappel, but aard means earth and appel means apple. I would know, as a South African :/ It is actually the direct translation. The giraffe word, kameelperd, literally means camel horse, but to Afrikaaners? It means giraffe. It's kinda how languages work.
