Veld

Veld, also spelled veldt, ( or ) is a type of wide open rural landscape in :Southern Africa. Particularly, it is a flat area covered in grass or low scrub, especially in the countries of South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Botswana, and Namibia. A certain sub-tropical woodland ecoregion of Southern Africa has been officially defined as the Bushveld by the World Wide Fund for Nature. Trees are found only in a few places—frost, fire, and grazing animals allow grass to grow but prevent the growth of trees.
==Etymology==
The word ''veld'' () comes from the Afrikaans word for 'field'.
The etymological origin is older Dutch ''veldt'', a spelling that the Dutch abandoned in favour of ''veld'' during the 19th century,〔Winkel, Lammert Allard te. De grondbeginselen der Nederlandsche spelling: Regelen der spelling voor het Woordenboek der Nederlandsche Taal. Publisher: D. Noothoven van Goor, 1873.

Cambridge University Press 1963 (Afrikaans: pp. 890–894)〕〔Berger, Iris. South Africa in World History. Oxford University Press, 2009. ISBN 978-0195337938〕 Subsequent addition of the terminal "t" in the spelling "veldt" seems to have been mainly an English confusion with the already obsolete Dutch usage; it never was an Afrikaans form.
