My oë is nog moeg, maar my neus en mond voel beter ná die warm water.

Because in Afrikaans, is is used with both singular and plural subjects.

So you get:

• ek is = I am
• jy is = you are
• hy/sy is = he/she is
• ons is = we are
• hulle is = they are

This is different from English, where am / is / are change depending on the subject.

Here nog means still.

So:

• My oë is nog moeg = My eyes are still tired

This is a very common Afrikaans word, but it can mean different things in other contexts, such as yet or another/more. In this sentence, still is the right sense.

The singular is oog = eye.
The plural is oë = eyes.

The ë shows that the vowels are pronounced separately, rather than blending into one sound. In other words, the dots help signal the correct pronunciation and syllable division.

So this is not just decorative spelling — it tells you how the word works.

Voel beter means feel better, and it is very natural when talking about symptoms, discomfort, or body parts that are improving.

So:

• my neus en mond voel beter = my nose and mouth feel better

If you used is beter, that would sound more like are better in a factual or clinical sense.
Voel beter is more personal and physical: the sensation has improved.

Because Afrikaans verbs usually do not change form for person or number in the present tense.

So you get:

• ek voel = I feel
• hy voel = he feels
• ons voel = we feel
• my neus en mond voel = my nose and mouth feel

Unlike English, Afrikaans does not add an -s for he/she/it feels.

Die means the.

So die warm water means the warm water — usually some specific warm water already known from the situation or context.

Afrikaans uses die for:

• singular nouns
• plural nouns
• all genders

So there is no separate the for masculine, feminine, or neuter nouns.

If you said just warm water, that would sound more general, like warm water in general rather than the warm water.

Here ná means after.

So:

• ná die warm water = after the warm water

The accent helps show stress and can make the meaning clearer. In practice, learners will also sometimes see na without the accent in everyday writing, but in careful writing ná is often used when after is meant clearly.

Yes. You could say:

Ná die warm water voel my neus en mond beter.

That is still correct.

This shows a useful Afrikaans word-order rule: if you move an adverbial phrase like ná die warm water to the front of a main clause, the finite verb usually comes next.

So:

• My neus en mond voel beter ná die warm water.
• Ná die warm water voel my neus en mond beter.

Both are good, but the emphasis changes slightly.

Before a noun, Afrikaans uses my:

• my oë = my eyes
• my neus = my nose
• my mond = my mouth

It does not change for gender or number.

If you want the standalone possessive idea mine, Afrikaans can use myne in some contexts. But before a noun, the normal form is simply my.
