(South Africa) A farm.
(South Africa) , a poisonous plant.
South African term, originally Afrikaans, for a farm or rural property — used across South African English to refer to farmland or a working agricultural estate. The word carries deep cultural weight in South Africa, tied to Afrikaner farming heritage, rural life, and the complicated history of land in the country. Whether it's a sprawling wine farm in the Western Cape or a maize operation on the Highveld, it's a 'plaas.' The word sounds exactly like what it describes — solid, grounded, unpretentious.
