Thanks, mate. It's an iPhone SE 2020 - I get a lot of good photos out of a budget phone.
Took this on my way home from work Monday morning. Lethabo Power Station on the left.

The same could be said of many people - just huge frogs in small pools.
Miss smarty pants, lol. Never knew the difference
Lol yep that's my name, I wear it like a shining beacon. Just kidding.
No, that's mainly been my experience - I've seen more toads, have handled lots of them and gotta say, tree frogs are cute and tiny but so fragile, you have to be gentle and careful when handling them. When they jump on your face unintendedly, it feels like someone threw a glob of silly slime on your face. That's what it feels like.
Toads on the other hand are heavy set and their legs are bowed in the front, unlike frogs. So many differences I can list here but google it - it's worth the read and all the images of different types of frogs - really beautiful ones out there.
What would be the distinction in Afrikaans then?
True except some words translated can be a bit rudeIndeed
I had a good laugh when I tried to translate sewing machine oil from afrikaans - it was a direct translation from Google.
@Viper_SA jammer maar ek verstaan afrikaans 'n bietjie. I might have spend time around a lot of afrikaans people but my understanding of afrikaans is very limited.
What was the translation?
It doesn't show it as sex machine oil - I think Google Translate has improved quite a fair bit since I last translated it.
If it shows as "naaimasjien olie" then it's correct. A sewing machine is a "naaimasjien" in Afrikaans with no sexual talk intended. Funny, but true.
100% correct. It's only the dirty minded Afrikaners that started to use the word "N**" as slang for having sex. It doesn't even come from the Dutch language. In Dutch the word "neuken" is the same as the "n" word in Afrikaans.
