I still present you expressions from South Africa.

bakkie = pickup truck
braai = barbecue
tekkies = sneakers
And this is Lord's prayer in Afrikaans translation
Ons Vader in die hemel, laat U Naam geheilig word.
Laat U koningsheerskappy spoedig kom. Laat U wil hier op aarde uitgevoer word soos in die hemel. Gee ons die porsie brood wat ons vir vandag nodig het. En vergeef ons ons sondeskuld soos ons ook óns skuldenaars vergewe het. Bewaar ons sodat ons nie aan verleiding sal toegee nie; en bevry ons van die greep van die Bose. Want van U is die koninkryk, en die krag, en die heerlikheid, tot in ewigheid. Amen
