Information
has gloss	eng: Bergie is a term used for a subsection of homeless people in Cape Town, South Africa. The word originates from the Afrikaans berg meaning "mountain" - the term originally referred to the homeless people who sheltered in the forests of the slopes of Table Mountain. Nowadays, however they are more commonly found in the city (particularly the Company Gardens and the harbour) where shelter and food are more readily available. Most of them speak Afrikaans mixed with a few English terms.
