When I was a small child, I drew the perfectly obvious conclusion that one spoke Afrikaans when playing and English when not, because my grandmother spoke Afrikaans to me and my parents spoke English. Caused no end of bother when I went to school and spoke English to the teachers and (tried to speak) Afrikaans to the other other children...
