Word of the Day [05 Jul 2025]

Boer maak 'n plan

It literally means a farmer makes a plan.
It’s testament to the fact that the Afrikaner will figure stuff out. If there’s a problem, he’ll find a workaround. If something is scarce, he’ll find a substitute.

These power cuts are annoying but 'n Boer maak 'n plan.
