Elke inwoner het toegang tot die park.

Because elke means every or each, and in Afrikaans it is followed by a singular noun.

So:

• elke inwoner = every resident / each resident
• not elke inwoners

This works much like English: we say every resident, not every residents.

It can mean either every or each, depending on context.

In this sentence, Elke inwoner het toegang tot die park, the most natural English translation is usually Every resident has access to the park, but Each resident has access to the park is also possible.

So elke covers both ideas.

Because elke already acts as the determiner.

In English, we also do not say every a resident or each the resident. In the same way, Afrikaans uses:

• elke inwoner = every resident

not:

• elke 'n inwoner
• elke die inwoner

So elke replaces the need for an article here.

Afrikaans verbs usually do not change form according to the subject the way English verbs sometimes do.

For example:

• Ek het = I have
• Jy het = you have
• Hy het = he has
• Ons het = we have

So in Elke inwoner het toegang tot die park, het stays the same even though the subject is singular.

This is one of the simpler features of Afrikaans grammar.

It means has access to.

You can think of it as a fixed expression:

• het = has
• toegang = access
• tot = to

So:

• het toegang tot die park = has access to the park

It is very common in formal and everyday Afrikaans.

Because toegang normally goes with tot in Afrikaans.

So the standard combination is:

• toegang tot iets = access to something

Examples:

• toegang tot die internet = access to the internet
• toegang tot die gebou = access to the building
• toegang tot die park = access to the park

Even though English also uses to, it is best to learn toegang tot as a set phrase.

Die is the definite article in Afrikaans, meaning the.

So:

• die park = the park

A useful thing to remember is that Afrikaans uses die for all genders and for both singular and plural definite nouns.

Examples:

• die man = the man
• die vrou = the woman
• die kinders = the children

So die is much simpler than articles in many other languages.

Yes. This is standard main-clause word order:

• Elke inwoner = subject
• het = verb
• toegang tot die park = rest of the predicate

So the pattern is basically:

Subject + verb + rest

That is the normal order for a simple statement in Afrikaans.

Yes, but it is slightly different in emphasis.

• Elke inwoner het toegang tot die park = Every resident / Each resident has access to the park
• Al die inwoners het toegang tot die park = All the residents have access to the park

Both can be correct, but elke inwoner focuses on individuals one by one, while al die inwoners treats them more as a group.

Yes, inwoner is a common word. It means resident or inhabitant.

Depending on context:

• inwoner van die stad = resident of the city
• inwoners = residents

In your sentence, inwoner most naturally means someone who lives in a place and therefore has access rights to the park.

You would use the plural noun inwoners:

• Inwoners het toegang tot die park. = Residents have access to the park.

If you want the residents, then:

• Die inwoners het toegang tot die park.

So:

• inwoner = resident
• inwoners = residents

A simple English-friendly guide is:

EL-kuh in-VOH-nur het TOE-khang tot dee park

A few notes:

• elke: the first syllable is stressed
• inwoner: stress is on vwo
• g in toegang is the harsh Afrikaans/Dutch-style sound, not an English g
• die sounds like dee, not like English die

A more natural Afrikaans pronunciation will depend on accent, but this guide is a good start.
