The Handwoordeboek van die Afrikaanse Taal (Desk Dictionary of the Afrikaans Language), “the HAT” for short, is the leading dictionary of the Afrikaans language. First published in 1965, this 6th edition has been thoroughly revised, updated and substantially enlarged. The new HAT provides unmatched coverage of contemporary Afrikaans, an authoritative description of those words that are current and relevant in the South African context. No other Afrikaans dictionary can claim such authority.

Did you know we're also getting our PhDs on the side? No big deal.
