Hey Charles.

Afrikaans for rainbow is "reenboog" and put two dots on the second e.
There is a language forum if you have any other language questions You're more likely to get a fast & accurate translation on there.

Howzit Liza

Why didn’t you “put two dots on the second e” of reënboog yourself?

howzit

aai woeld haw poet thi toe dots on the e, bad aai downt know how to doo it on the compewters at the college. they haw speshil softwęr there.

lol, ek het probeer om dit te tik sodat dit soos 'n SA aksent klink as jy dit lees
ek was op kampus toe ek daai reply getik het, en al die rekenaars het spesiaale sagteware vir mense met disabilities, so as ek alt 136 tik maak dit nie 'n kappie nie, maar vat jou na allerhande weird indekse toe.
weet jy wat die ander manier is om aksente te maak? ek gebruik altyd die alt 136/alt 137 funksie, maar ek weet dat daar 'n ander manier is

LOL!
If dere is nie knappie on the compewter voor die dotties you kan poet them in vit die “insert” menu. Aai kan nie the knappies naam nie en Engles maar dit is the vierde knappie van leyft (en “woord progamm”). Dit yoo klicken op chooz the “symbol” wer yoo feynd die leyter met dotties!

Ongelukkig, kan ik nie goed Afrkaans praat nie maar es nie moeilik omdat es is like my tall van my Land. Maar die vroeëre van u is te met moeilikheid. Wat es met e-possie?
