veld
FELT
Open grassland or savanna in southern Africa — the rolling, treeless expanse that stretches to the horizon. Veld is defined by altitude (highveld, lowveld, middleveld), by vegetation (bushveld, sweetveld, sourveld), and by the quality of light that fills it.
Etymology
Afrikaans: veld, from Dutch veld (field). The word is larger than its translation.
