Guest Lecture: Rufus Gouws

In March, professor Rufus Gouws, head of the Department of Dutch and Afrikaans at Stellenbosch University, visited us in Poznań. He gave a guest lecture entitled 'On the position of Afrikaans as language and as study field', where he shared some very interesting and optimistic views and statistics about the language within the broader South African context.

We were fortunate enough to host another South African as the next day, professor Daan Prinsloo from the University of Pretoria lectured on 'Lexicographic traditions and lemmatisation problems in Bantu languages'.

Here are some pictures from the day.
