KAFFIR. Although
now considered an offensive term for a black person, especially in South
Africa, this was previously a neutral term for a black southern African
person. It was derived from the Arabic word Kaifir, meaning "unbeliever."
(Wiki)
... A Kaffir boy was
called Skellum, the Natal patois of the Dutch schelm, a
rascal, and a man who had been in the Cape corps, called his children by
the words of command, Right about face, and Left shoulder forward!
