While on their flight, the 48-year-old and her mother were shocked by a jaw-dropping revelation as they conversed with a fellow passenger.

As recounted during a previous appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden, the renowned Hollywood luminary, fluent in her native Afrikaans, revealed a remarkable incident from her airport journey.

Theron’s conversation with Corden ventured into the intriguing parts of using one’s mother tongue to sneakily commented on those around without their understanding. 

In a candid moment, Theron digs into a rather awkward circumstance involving an insolent stranger she encountered at the airport. She revealed,

“I was taking a flight to New York and this guy was very rude. My mom and I were just ripping into him thinking that he couldn’t understand a word. And then he turned around and stared at us and said….. ( speaking in Afrikaans). And we literary just, we had nothing-We had no comeback.”

The astonishing twist of the stranger’s fluency left the Fast X star taken aback, considering the freak of Afrikaans speakers in the USA. 

However, this wasn’t the first time Theron’s native language had garnered attention; she had previously faced criticism due to her comment on linguistic heritage.

A luminary star of Hollywood, acclaimed for her versatility and candid demeanor, found herself immersed in a fervent debate. 

Sharing her thoughts on the Smartless podcast, she revealed her linguistic journey from growing up solely immersed in Afrikaans in South Africa to later acquiring English at 19, which attributed an American accent to her speech.

This revelation surfaced during a moving episode of the podcast, where she lamented the gradual fading of her once dominant language. She said, “It’s definitely a dying language, it’s not a very helpful language.”

It was interesting how Theron’s thoughts unfolded a complex web with wider consequences. Her words were scrutinized by critics, highlighting the complex connection Afrikaans has to South Africa’s history and culture.

As is often the case when influential voices engage in discourse, Theron’s words rippled across the societal pond.

The ensuing overflow of reactions triggered intense contemplation about the role public figures play in navigating complex narratives.
