It's pretty amazing how our vocabulary expands. With the World Cup fever, there were even opportunities for us to learn new words.
These are some of the words I could think of and their meanings.
South Africa national football team or Bafana Bafana
vuvuzela or the stadium horn (irritating though)
What other words did you learn?

I think that the only new word i have learned is vuvuzela. I will have to learn how to spell it next :)

My 16 year-old son is SO not into football! He's a trumpeter-in-training (the real thing, with valves.) Off to his class last night, I quipped: Got your vevuzela then, I see."
His response? A puzzled: "Dur?"
