Stella Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 My boss is Afrikaner and is leaving soon. He has been absolutely awesome. I want to write something in Afrikaans in a card. Can anyone translate my message into Afrikaans for me please? (without writing a whole lot of dodgy stuff!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella Posted September 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 In typical Stella style I got all enthusiastic then put it off until the last minute. I hope someone is able to translate quickly, as he is leaving tomorrow! This is what I want: "I have really enjoyed working with you over the last two years. You are so much fun and I have learned so much! Who now will look at me funny every time I hiccup, or raise their eyebrows at my interests? You have been unquestionably the best dentist I have worked with and and it will be hard finding another to trust to work on my teeth. All the best to you and your family on your next adventures. " Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
