No no that's just America.

I always thought 'blacks' was more derogatory than 'coloured', or at least considered to be so by some (I mean, if someone has colour X, it shouldn't be terrible to mention colour X  ).

 

But fine, offtopic. The yellow hats win in a WR

as far as i know no one speaks Afrikaans which's derived from dutch language and black there  , ofc there're English whites and blacks there as long as English is the formal language of SA  

 

But they do speak it (it's the third most common language in SA with 7 million native speakers according to Wiki). And I do know of some SA athletes whose mother tongue is Afrikaans.
