Question

All but one of these points are true about the Boers and Boer People of South Africa:

A.Apartheid was established in South Africa by the British Government
B.The British government recognized Boer rule in Transvaal (modern South Africa) in 1852
C.A Boer is a South African of Dutch, German, or Huguenot descent
D.Boers speak Afrikaans, a language from the admixture of Dutch, indigenous African, and other languages
E.Boer is the Dutch word for farmer

Answer 1

The incorrect statement about the Boers of South Africa is that Apartheid was established by the British Government; it was actually established by the Afrikaner National Party in 1948.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that is not true about the Boers and Boer People of South Africa is option A: Apartheid was established in South Africa by the British Government. Apartheid was actually established by the Afrikaner National Party in 1948, many years after the British had established colonial rule over the territory. The term Apartheid is indeed an Afrikaner word which means "separation" and was a policy enforced to maintain white domination while extending racial separation.

Options B and D are correct, as the British government recognized Boer rule in the Transvaal in 1852 after the first Boer War, and the Boers, or Afrikaners, do speak Afrikaans, which developed from Dutch along with various indigenous African and other languages. Option C is also correct: A Boer is a South African of Dutch, German, or Huguenot descent. Lastly, option E is correct as well: Boer is the Dutch word for farmer.
