Description	English: Enscription on a plaque in front of the Afrikaans Language Monument, near Paarl, South Africa. Translation of inscription Afrikaans is the language that links western Europe and Africa... it forms a bridge between the great bright west and the majestical Africa... and what greatness can sprout from this union...this may be what Afrikaans is destined to discover, but what we should never forget is that these changes of land and landscape sharpened, kneaded and knitted this new language..and in this fashion it became possible for Afrikaans to be spoken throughout this country...Our task is in the use that we make, and shall make of this tool -- N.P. van Wyk Louw
