Here are entered works on the language spoken and written by the descendants of the Dutch colonists in South Africa which gradually evolved and differentiated from the Dutch South African dialects of the earlier periods. Works on Dutch South African dialects not conforming to Dutch as spoken or written in the Netherlands are entered under [Dutch language--Dialects--South Africa.]

Directory metadata is not a factual answer or evidence of a global knowledge gap.
