Why did Gandhi go to Pretoria?

he wanted to change the segregation laws using a peaceful protest.

he started by trying to change the law of all black residents having to carry an identification card with them at all times. this was unfair and inconvenient because a white person could stop them at any time and there was no reason for the blacks to be treated so differently.

Gandhi organised a meeting place and gathered some black men to join in with his peaceful protest, he also invited a newspaper reporter and the police turned up.

after a speech, Gandhi started to burn all of the black men's passes. the police got involved and persistently smacked Gandhi round the head and stomach with a bat. even though he was being punished so severely Gandhi continued to put the paper in the fire. eventually he was knocked out and had to stop but the ext day the reporter wrote how Gandhi had been assaulted by the police.

obviously Gandhi hadn't actually broken any laws so his first Pretoria protest worked.

he continued to create other protests which succeeded.

Can you wear summer clothing in august in south Africa?

August is still winter time in South Africa, and whether you can wear summer clothing is going to depend on where in South Africa you are. If you are in an area such as KwaZulu-Natal, then you would most likely be able to wear summer clothing in August. If you were in Cape Town or Johannesburg you would not be able to, especially in Johannesburg at night or early morning, as it can be freezing cold at those times.

South Africa is regarded as a multicultural and multilingual country with eleven official languages. Primarily, English is the initial language. (Afrikaans speaking people are the minority)

Equal use of the official languages does not imply every public notice or sign in eleven languages, yet in some cases this might be necessary. Luckily due to the fact that some languages are related some terms are similar as with this stop sign. The following has been used: "stop" from Afrikaans and English; "jama" from isiNdebele; "tshitopo" from Tshivenda; "yima" from isiZulu, isiXhosa and Xitsonga; "ema" from Sesotho (southern Sotho), Sesotho sa Leboa (Northern Sotho) and Setswana; and "mani" from siSwati. Multilingualism has not caught on to this degree and in general translations are only made where there is a real need.
