Overview
All the words in Afrikaans to do with flags are descended
from 17th Century Dutch (which does
not seem to be much different from modern Dutch as far as flags
are concerned).

There’s also word "vaan" (from
germanic etym meaning
"flag"), but usually only as in "windvaan":
"vane" or "windvane".
