Perhaps Afrikaans is your mother tongue, in which case you may be a bit
biased in your opinion of that language being more obvious and clear
(not to say you may not be right)...
As a non-Afrikaans/non-English native speaker, both languages have their
pluses and minuses for me... though I never really use computer terms in
Afrikaans TBH.

What about bank (i.e. financial institution/couch or place to sit)?
