DurationNow on to Afrikaans. Afrikaans is actually the fourth-most spoken Germanic language after English, German, and Dutch, with an estimated 20 million speakers including second language speakers.
Most Afrikaans speakers are found in South Africa and Namibia but a large number of them live abroad. It is one of the newest languages in the world, as it is an offshoot of Dutch spoken in southern Africa that simplified over time, acquiring a much more analytic grammar than any of the other Germanic languages, except perhaps English. In light of this, it is an excellent entrance to the Germanic world for an English speaker.
The Dante Alighieri Society in Pietermaritzburg is part of La Societá Dante Alighieri in Rome, one of the five European Cultural Associations in Europe.
We are proud, that although we were the youngest branch of the Societá Dante Alighieri in South Africa, we were the first to introduce the EU-recognized PLIDA (Progetto Lingua Italiana Dante Alighieri) examinations in this country.
Starting from 2008 up today we have taught 140 adults and 366 young students and in 2009 we inaugurated a library which houses in excess of 2500 volumes, the initial 200 books coming directly from Florence, many of great value and interest.
Whether you want to learn Italian foryour job or university studies, everyday life, or just personal interest, La Dante can guarantee rapid progress thanks to:
