Answer:

Its base is in Dutch words, but it was affected by local, European and slave languages.

Explanation:

Afrikaans which is the official language people used during the apartheid era is known to have evolved during the 19th century in Southern Africa. The language is said to have its roots mainly in Dutch, then mixed with Khoekhoe, San languages and Portuguese.  

Since the language is associated with white speakers, it was then concluded that it was a “white language”.
