Not exactly, my previous generations were "Boers" cause they are farmers but they mingled with some English speaking Dutch people so eventually we just Dutch descent but speak English.
Way more variations than just Boer or Zulu?

Scandinavian languages would be Danish, Norwegian, Swedish and a bunch of minority languages with just a couple of thousands of speakers.
For me, I speak both Norwegian and Swedish, depending on situation, but they are so similar so a foreigner would have trouble telling them apart.
With relatives I either speak Norwegian, English, French or Vietnamese.
Do you speak any Afrikaans?

Yeah we have it pretty easy. Just one official language per Scandinavian country. Actually two for Denmark and Sweden as English is the official language for the European Union.
And our minority languages is nothing more than people getting a public education in it if they speak one of them and some villages having a name both in the official language and in the minority language of that area.
They say that growing up in a multi lingual home will make you good with languages. But for me, it have just been me mixing up the grammar, sentence structure and words between them. Even tried to learn German to show my multi lingual skills, but my results were not impressive.

Hmm ok. I understand the multi lingual problems. Unless you wanna travel the world, there's no point cause you gonna confuse yourself and use up alot of your time learning.

I did not really have a choice in the matter. My parents are both bilingual (sadly neither being the same language), and they decided that their kids were to learn their languages.

Speaking from experience, a boyfriend that actually makes an effort to communicate with his beloved lady friends family, will be rewarded.

Just stop be lazy ?
Boyfriends are very similar to dogs, positive reinforcement works much better when you want them to learn how to behave, compared to nag, yell or bitch when they don't to as you want.
Just some lip action every now and then and he will act more in line with how you want him to act. They don't even know about it, it all happens subconsciously.

Thank you.
I don't know if he can reach a higher level. When he learned to put the toilet seat down after his business I just thought "jackpot!" and accepted his proposal.

Hmm, yes, the ultimate challenge as a man. I forget some times but most of the time I remember, so hopefully my girlfriend is impressed?

Nothing wrong with a bit of "Testing a Theory" with your loved ones. Especially if no one else knows?
