TEAM SOUTH AFRICA HAS ARRIVED
TEAM SOUTH AFRICA HAS ARRIVED
We might be the new guys on the block, but weāre here to corrupt (oh wait, thatās ourā¦) take over the Steemverse!!
Shame, we know you guys donāt understand us fully with our "South African accent" and all (oh, and there is more than one, by the way), but let us try and educate you a bit on how to converse with someone from Mzansi2:
A big shoutout to @bearone for creating our banners/signatures! If you havenāt joined our Discord chat server as yet - please go here to chat with us and catch up on your other team mates.
Thanks so much to our Moderators @darnscotty, @philip.willemse and @the-housewife for their time and effort keeping the chats clean.
- Shame This is an endearing term used in almost any situation.
- Just now This could mean anything from a few minutes to a few hours (or even days for that matter). If a South African says "Iāll do it just now," well, it probably wonāt happen anytime soon.
- Robot No, this is not some "robotic man" walking down the street - this is simply a traffic light. We also tend not to stop at these (especially after dark).
- Izit? / Sho? Usually used when you have absolutely no idea what your friend is talking about and you donāt want to sound stupid.
"My sister just had a baby, shame, heās so cute".
"Shame, he wrote his car off last night, I hope he didnāt get hurt?".
One word, any situation!
"Oh man! I sat up until 2am converting my SQL database to MariaDB".
"Izit?"
