It all looks like very colloquial and informal writing -

- van 'n moewiese saal

I am guessing that they are talking about a 'movie' or a really big hall. I think its a slang word - that means 'really big' or 'far out'.

An idiom that means 'really' as in true - a direct word for word translation wouldnt really make sense.

- ..eers toe di tandarts sussie se tande kom wys


'wys' would mean 'show' in this sentence

Hoi allemaal!

Ik woon nu in Nederland sinds drie jaar terug of zo, en vindt 't leuk om Nederlands te oefenen.
Ik heb het heelemaal niet gestudeerd, maar ik denk dat ik moet meer schrijven, en niet alleen praten ;)

Tot de volgende keer,

Petteri

Hallo almal

Ek is geinteresseerd in Nederlands. Ek woon in North Carolina, VSA. (aangename kennis Diglot, ons is amper bure). Laat weet as julle skakels het na Nederlandse of Afrikaanse audioboeke. - Verkieslik gratis, ek is bietjie suinig.

Hi there, I am interested in Dutch. I currently live in NC and am looking for links to free Dutch or Afrikaans audio books.

haai almal! Ek is oorspronklik van Pretoria, Suid-Afrika af, maar ons het in die staten vir so lank gewoon, dat ek het so veel Afrikaans verlore, ek wil natuurlik my Afrikaans verbeter, daarom is ek hier, en daarom ek julle geskryf het, kan julle my sĂȘ waar ek enige boeke van die Afrikaans taal te vind kan? Of waar ek enige informatie van die taal op die internet te vind kan? Baie dankie vir jou hulp

                                                    groete, James

I did some Afrikaans on-line before I moved on to Dutch. I'd like to get back in that but the dictionaries I use seem to suck. Anyone got any good ones?

For Dutch I have the Van Dale dictionnaries, but they are very annoying because they haven't the genders of the nouns. probably they thought that the people will be Dutch-speakers, therefore they didn't put the infos for the learners of this language.

Mostly, I prefer the internet ones, for example:
