Community-Focused Afrikaans Translations: Serving the Western Cape Fishing Sector
Along the Western Cape coastline, Afrikaans remains the predominant language in many smaller fishing and coastal communities. For instance, in Langebaan, it is spoken by three-quarters of the community – a stark contrast to larger urban centres like Cape Town, where it shares equal footing with English and isiXhosa.
We understand that truly effective translation extends beyond major cities and standard corporate sectors. These vibrant Afrikaans-speaking fishing communities particularly rely on clear, precise communication in their home language for all critical information, from vital safety guidelines and new fishing regulations to essential community notices and and local government directives.
Our culturally attuned translators ensure these crucial messages are accurately conveyed, fostering understanding and compliance where it matters most. This dedicated approach directly supports the livelihoods and well-being of these unique communities, empowering them through accessible and authentic communication.
In Gordonsbaai (Gordon's Bay) Afrikaans reaches six out of ten people in their home language.
