Not many people know this, but a " Passion gap" comes from slavery. Many slaves back then removed their front teeth as a way to take control of their own bodies as you can imagine during slavery our people weren't in charge of their own bodies. All the people in the video are coloureds and yes, some people have alot of gold in their teeth some have the caps and some have 1 full gold tooth or two on the left and right sides. My dad had a gold tooth and a gold slit my mom only had a gold slit. These days youngsters are moving away from the gold and putting those diamond studs on their teeth
hard to believe even coloureds dont know how the gap began.....I think coloureds were affected most by apartheid because they are totally lost about their history than any ethnic group in SA. We need to reeducate them. Shems they are so lost.
My mom has a gold slit and a few other women in my family..been there since before I was born,and every few years Im like "you have a gold tooth?"😂😂
@Zukhanye Dladla right lol I was also so amazed by my parents with this gold in their teeth lol 😆 😂
Back in the day, it was a status thing. Trying to be/look cool or rich but it's definitely becoming a thing of the past. Many of the kids today no longer think it's cool.
Talking about gold neh, my Pedi people like gold on their teeth and we get mocked for that 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 South Africa is crazy hey 😂😂
They even mug you and take your dreadlocks(rarely happens though) here in South Africa,lol South Africa is a special country 😂
It's mostly Capetonian Coloureds who do that...The one's in Joburg or KZN hardly remove their teeth
We don't remover out teeth at all. That's strictly a Cape flats thing
@@ezrolly898 Cape Flats meaning you are in Cape Town..hence CapeTonian....just because I said CapeTonian doesn't mean all of y'all...
And it's not just ones from the Cape Flats...I knew one from Stellenbosch area who also had the teeth pulled out....
@@ezrolly898 where is the Cape flats located 🤔😂😂😂😂😂
@@jean-patricepaluku4754 Since the Cape Flats is a suburb in Cape Town, I believe its residents would refer to themselves as "Capetonians" right.
@@jean-patricepaluku4754 the main comment said 😩👉"it's mostly Capetonian coloured who do that. The ones in Joburg or KZN hardly remove their teeth"
Bellville Taxi Rank in the background 😂😂
Actually all those people in the video were in fact part of the Coloured label.
As you can see it's a broad vague cultural label.
And as you can see, it includes a range of African to Asian spectrum of people.
It is NOT a singular ethnos/race.
It was basically the label where the Apartheid government put those "in-colony" people of colour who couldn't speak an indigenous language (generally spoke the establishment Dutch: Afrikaans), as Apartheid classifications were supposed to be on a cultural basis.
The Dutch and British rulers only wanted their subjects to speak Dutch or English.
Afrikaans developed into a language in its early precolonial stage from European sailors and indigenous khoikhoi trying to communicate in the 1500s and early 1600s.
The second stage was the intermarriages between white working class laborers, with khoikhoi and former slaves from India, Malay islands, Madagascar and Mozambique. The Hugenots(French Christians) immigrants who came to the Cape for good to escape persecution also intermarried with the previously mentioned groups.
These peoples all developed the Afrikaans language in the southern tip of Africa.
They used Dutch as a written language until Afrikaans developed into its own written form.
Many of the white Kneg(indentured servants) who married women in the Cape were Flemish sailors who worked on Dutch ships.
This explains why Afrikaans is very similar to medieval Flemish with a strong Khoikhoi, and Malay influence with smaller influences from old French, and later on small English and Sotho and Nguni influences a couple centuries later as well as other smaller influences.
Dutch and British colonial rulers whose homes were in Europe did not want to develop a new language. It was multicultural populations who lived permanently in Southern Namibia and the West coast of South Africa who developed Afrikaans.
1) That's a nice little narrative (based on 20th century institutional Union of South Africa nationhood narrative building), but the reality is that Afrikaans is 95% Dutch and the remainder largely other European like German etc. with a *tiny* sprinkle of words from the Dutch East Indies (e.g Piesang from Indonesian).
Also a tiny sprinkle of words come from native languages like "kudu" which comes from Xhosa "iqude" which evolved from khoekhoegowab. (largely a moribund "Latin" in SA)
But these words in Afrikaans are so few and far between, that it's as ridiculous to define the language by categorically, as calling English "based on Japanese", simply because a few words like Tsunami are used.
Afrikaans is a Dutch dialect.
2) By the way, my original comment above was actually about the group label Coloured, not language, and as established in point 1) Afrikaans is the SA establishment's Dutch dialect, which was its only mention in the original comment and remains factual.
You mentioned Johannesburg but this is a Cape Town thing… hence why they called Cape coloureds
Most people do it if they have huge front, they do it to avoid being bugs bunny
The topic, needs a big cup of coffee, there's a sad story of slavery here, and than there's the social stupidity that came after e.g. gangster's and kissing and eating fish.
It has nothing to do with gangsterism, it's a status thing and most of the time people's front teeth didn't look good for guy's it looked good and girls liked !!! Period 😂🤣
Lol yes attacked.😂 They even used to attack people for their dreadlocks a few years ago. 😭
It was also done because they wanted to drop their value so they wouldnt be bought as slaves..if you look at the yellow pages in Cape town you will find surnames of the months...like January February and so on these are descendants of slaves these these slaves were bought in these particular months. So your name was john and you were bought in November you became John November
I know a colored lady who had her front teeth removed after she got married....She said it was her "culture" it seems to differ from one group of coloured people to the next..
OMG 😂😂😂😂😂😂ppl are being attacked for the gold tooth/ Teeth 🫣
As a Coloured,,, I was taught the reason was because gold will turn the teeth blue and the only way was to pull it and pure gold in as a sign of wealth.
All kinds of foolish stories from the supposedly from our elders
These are flava flav’s people, everytime I see flava flav I am like this dude is from the Cape Flats. 😅😅
I extracted my front teeth coz it was in bad shape but I am definitely getting dentures in but I am not about the gold life so there will be no gold on my teeth
😂😂😂I ain't never heard of nobody who got taken their gold teeth out, that's definitely knew to me.
Lmao 😂😂😂😂😂 no way bro... What's going on in Cape Town 😂😂😂
The front teeth removal is a long an painfull story only the khoisan will be able to give you the real reason .
Growing up I was told it was because coloureds eat a lot of fish so their teeth become loose, which is weird now that I think of it cause isn’t fish good for the health of your yeeth🤔🤦🏾♀️😂😂
I never knew this, we learn everyday. I've been told the reason most Coloureds from the Cape don't have front teeth is because of too much fish, particularly snook fish because of the amount of salt it has. guess that was a lie.
Fish lol some coloureds don't even eat fish 🤣 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Those are actually colored people giving their opinions in the beginning 😉 you can hear it in their accent. Graves are also opened and gold teeth stolen from the body. People are desperate
The fact that I'm from cape town and have a gap 😂
I thought is because they like fighting, I didn't know they do it intentionally.
