Line by line analysis of poem
1. die storms woed “die storms” = this is a
weer in ons huis metaphor (metafoor) for the
vandag problems in his life and the
arguments (argumente) that
take place (neem plaas)
between (tussen) the
narrator and his parents.

“storms” = an example of
connotation (konnotasie)
and not denotation
(denotasie) as these are not
storms that take place
(plaasvind) in nature (die
natuur), but which represent
(verteenwoordig) the
conflict (konflik) between
the parents and the narrator.

“woed” = strong (sterk) verb
indicating (wat aandui) that
these arguments are quite
unpleasant
(onaangenaam/sleg).

“weer” = showing that this is
not the first argument they
are having – it happens
