I don't understand what it is about the Afrikaaner accent that people don't like! I have several friends here who speak with that accent and it's quite lovely and very easy to listen to as well as understand! Much, much easier than a German-accented English or just plain German - ugh! Though years ago, I did learn to sing in German, it's the one language I find basically repulsive to hear.
Here you can hear every language and every accent in the world - it's a treasure trove of sounds and ideas and words... And I still think Hebrew is the most beautiful of them all!
