Die vervaldatum is môre.

Yes. Die is the Afrikaans definite article, and here it means the.

A useful thing for English speakers to know is that Afrikaans does not have different words for the based on gender. So unlike languages such as German or Dutch, you do not need to learn masculine/feminine/neuter forms here. Die is used for singular and plural definite nouns in many common cases.

So in Die vervaldatum, die simply means the expiration date.

Because Afrikaans very often writes compound nouns as a single word.

So:

• verval = expiry / lapse
• datum = date

Together they form:

• vervaldatum = expiration date / expiry date

This is very common in Afrikaans and is something English speakers often have to get used to, because English usually writes these as two words more often than Afrikaans does.

Other examples of the same pattern are:

• huisdeur = house door / front door
• tafeldoek = tablecloth

Verval is related to the idea of something expiring, lapsing, or becoming invalid.

In this sentence, it helps build the noun vervaldatum, literally something like expiry date.

You may also see related uses such as:

• Die kaartjie verval môre. = The ticket expires tomorrow.

So:

• verval can be part of a noun
• verval can also appear as a verb in other sentences

Because Afrikaans does not need a preposition here.

Just like English says:

• The meeting is tomorrow

Afrikaans says:

• Die vergadering is môre

So in Die vervaldatum is môre, môre works directly as a time expression after is. There is no extra word like on.

Yes. Is is the present-tense form of to be, and it works very much like English is in this sentence.

So the structure is:

• Die vervaldatum = the expiration date
• is = is
• môre = tomorrow

Afrikaans also has much less verb change than English. For example, is stays is:

• Ek is = I am
• Jy is = you are
• Hy is = he is
• Ons is = we are

That simplicity is often helpful for learners.

Yes, but this sentence follows a very straightforward pattern:

• Subject + verb + time expression

So:

• Die vervaldatum = subject
• is = verb
• môre = time expression

This is a normal main-clause word order in Afrikaans.

English speakers may notice that it feels very familiar:

• The expiration date is tomorrow.

A practical pronunciation guide is:

• môre ≈ MOH-ruh

The ô is important. It signals a different vowel sound from plain o.

Also note:

• the stress is usually on the first syllable: MÔ-re

If you are learning by ear, it is worth paying attention to the accent mark, because it helps distinguish this word from others.

The accent matters. In careful writing, you should keep it.

• môre = tomorrow
• more = mornings

So the accent helps distinguish meaning.

Examples:

• Ek sien jou môre. = I’ll see you tomorrow.
• In die more drink ek koffie. = In the mornings I drink coffee.

So for learners, it is a good habit to write môre correctly with the circumflex.

Not in this spelling.

• môre = tomorrow
• more = mornings

If you want to say morning in the singular, Afrikaans very often uses:

• oggend = morning

For example:

• more = mornings
• oggend = morning

So if you see môre with the accent, think tomorrow.

Yes. Afrikaans often allows more than one natural way to express the same idea.

Besides Die vervaldatum is môre, you could also say:

• Dit verval môre. = It expires tomorrow.
• Die produk verval môre. = The product expires tomorrow.

The original sentence focuses on the date itself.
The alternatives focus more on the item or the act of expiring.

Yes, vervaldatum is a normal and widely used word.

You will commonly see it on:

• food packaging
• medicine labels
• official documents
• cards or passes

So if you are talking about the date after which something is no longer valid or safe to use, vervaldatum is a very useful word to know.

In this sentence, die sounds natural because you are referring to a specific expiration date: the expiration date.

If you remove it:

• Vervaldatum is môre

that would usually sound incomplete or unnatural in standard Afrikaans unless it appears in a very special context such as a label, note, heading, or very shortened style.

So in normal full-sentence usage, Die vervaldatum is môre is the safer choice.

Because both Afrikaans and English often use the present tense for something scheduled or clearly fixed in time.

Compare:

• The test is tomorrow.
• Die toets is môre.

So even though the time is in the future, the present tense sounds completely natural. You do not need a future marker here.

A future form would usually be unnecessary unless you wanted a different nuance.
