Talk:Afrikaner-Jews

Jewish Afrikaners?
Come on, there is no such thing. Check out the census forms and prove that there have ever been any. Jewish people in SA have always preferrred English as a home language, the fact that some grew up speaking/writing it fluently doesn't make them Afrikaners any more than speaking/writing fluent English makes an Afrikaner or a Zulu, English. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.14.218.82 (talk) 15:47, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Does this even exist?
Are there even any Afrikaner-Jews? The article states that Eastern European jews came and shaped South African jewry, but.. didn't these learn English as a first language? Didn't Jews from England learn... well... English? I can only think that German Jews maybe ended up speaking Afrikaans? Bezuidenhout (talk) 18:28, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
