@Felthry Fairly intelligible, though actually trying to speak it usually doesn't end well. That said, there are a bunch of false friends between the two, and knowing English on the side helps a ton due to influence from that.
@Felthry Sorta like that, though obviously the actual circumstances under which Afrikaans separated from Dutch are pretty different from the ones in which Scots separated from English; like, there isn't exactly a dialect continuum between the two, obviously.
