ANALYSIS OF THE POEM
1. pa se kodewoord The poem starts with a
reference (verwysing) to
technology (tegnologie),
which is the father’s
password. “kodewoord” is a
neologism (neologisme) as
the correct term for
“password” in Afrikaans, is
“sleutelwoord”.
2. draf ek in ‘n oogwink kaf Line 1 and 2 is an
example of inversion
(inversie), which is the term
for the incorrect
(verkeerde) word order
(woordorde) as the
sentence is supposed to
(veronderstel om) read: “Ek
draf my pa se kodewoord in
‘n oogwink kaf.” The
possible (moontlik) reason
(rede) for the use of this
technique (tegniek), is to
place (plaas) the emphasis
(klem) on the most
