What part of south America are not independent and what countries control them?
French Guiana is still legally part of France, and is treated like other French departments in Europe.

What were the Dutch colonists called in South Africa?
There is a flaw in the question, because the Afrikaners did not have Dutch male progenitors only, but actually even more from the Lowlands in Northern Germany, as well as a number of French Huguenots. Most came to the Cape to work for the Dutch East Indian Company that had a "halfway house" there, to call it such, for ships sailing between the Netherlands and "India" (or the East). Many of the Europeans decided to stay on as farmers -- and their descendants eventually became what is still known today as Afrikaners. Because the everyday languages of the Dutch and the people of the German Lowlands were virtually the same (with only dialectical differences) the Dutch and Germans had little difficulty in understanding each other and the vernacular merged into what is called Afrikaans. The French spoken by the smaller number of French quickly died out.

Dutch language for ruled the middle colonies?
The Dutch language in its colonies never became as dominant and generally spoken as for instance the Engish language became in Britain's colonies. It was mostly spoken by the Dutch themselves living there and by the "educated" or ruling local people, either because they had attended Dutch-language schools and universities or because of very frequent contact with the Dutch. Only in Surinam and the formerly Dutch Caribean islands - until very recently or even now part of the Dutch commonwealth - is Dutch still generally understood by the local people. Even there the spoken language is usually the local language.
