Die onderhoud is môre.

No. In Afrikaans, die is usually pronounced like dee.

So in this sentence, Die onderhoud is môre starts with a dee sound, not the English die sound.

Here, die means the.

It is the Afrikaans definite article. Unlike English, where the is the only definite article, Afrikaans also mainly uses just one common form: die.

It is capitalized because it is the first word of the sentence.

If it appeared in the middle of a sentence, it would normally be written as die, not Die.

No. Afrikaans does not have different definite articles for masculine, feminine, and neuter nouns.

So whether the noun is singular or plural, and whatever its gender might have been historically, you normally use die for the.

That makes Afrikaans simpler than languages like German or Dutch in this area.

In this sentence, onderhoud means interview.

However, onderhoud can also have other meanings depending on context, such as maintenance or upkeep, and sometimes discussion/conversation in certain uses.

So context matters. In Die onderhoud is môre, the scheduled-event meaning interview is the natural one.

Is is the present-tense form of to be in Afrikaans.

So the sentence structure is basically:

• Die onderhoud = the interview
• is = is
• môre = tomorrow

Afrikaans keeps this very simple, because is does not change the way English am / is / are do. For example:

• Ek is = I am
• Jy is = you are
• Hy is = he is
• Hulle is = they are

Because Afrikaans usually does not need a preposition before simple time words like môre.

So you simply say:

• Die onderhoud is môre. = The interview is tomorrow.

This is normal Afrikaans. Time expressions like vandag (today), gister (yesterday), and môre (tomorrow) often stand on their own without a preposition.

Yes. Môre can mean either tomorrow or morning, depending on context.

For example:

• Goeie môre = Good morning
• Die onderhoud is môre = The interview is tomorrow

In your sentence, the meaning tomorrow is the natural one because it is talking about when the interview takes place.

The little hat, called a circumflex, is part of the standard spelling: môre.

It helps show the correct vowel quality/pronunciation. As a learner, it is best to write it as môre, not more.

A rough English-style pronunciation is MOR-uh.

Yes. This is the normal basic order:

subject + verb + time expression

So:

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

That makes Die onderhoud is môre a completely natural sentence.

Yes. Môre is die onderhoud is also correct.

That version puts extra focus on môre. English does something similar when you say Tomorrow is the interview.

So both are correct:

• Die onderhoud is môre.
• Môre is die onderhoud.

The difference is mainly emphasis.

You would normally use the Afrikaans double negative:

Die onderhoud is nie môre nie.

This means The interview is not tomorrow.

The usual pattern is:

• first nie after the verb or relevant part of the sentence
• second nie at the end

That double-nie pattern is a very important feature of Afrikaans grammar.
