So you *are* Dutch! Not Afrikaner? :)
Well then, as you know, the literal translation of 'mis-use' to Dutch is 'misbruik'. Which IMO is similar to the English 'abuse'. I therefore assume that 'mis-use' and 'abuse' are synonyms.
Of course, we Dutchies will stick together. We have to, against giants like Americans and the Borgs. :)
