Lingo South African Slang Playing Cards – 52 South African Phrases

“Lekker!”, “Braai!”, “Eish!” — South African slang has a character all of its own, and this deck brings some of its best-known words and expressions straight to the card table.

The South African Slang Playing Cards by Lingo are more than just a deck of cards. Across 54 illustrated cards, you’ll discover the expressions, sayings and local lingo that make South African English so distinctive. Whether you’re already familiar with the slang or discovering it for the first time, there’s something to learn — and probably something to laugh about — with every hand.

They’re also made to be properly played with. The deck features poker-sized, black-core cardstock with a linen finish, giving the cards a quality feel while helping to prevent the faces from showing through.

Compact, colourful and full of personality, this is a great deck for South Africans living abroad, travellers, language lovers and collectors, as well as anyone looking for a fun South African gift or souvenir.
