English to afrikaans meaning of

Die woordeboekbetekenis van die woord "boulevard" is 'n breë en ruim straat of laan, dikwels omring met bome en gedeel deur 'n middelstrook of sypaadjie, wat tipies in 'n stad of dorp voorkom. Die term het oorspronklik verwys na die boomryke promenades in Parys, Frankryk, maar is sedertdien deur baie ander stede regoor die wêreld aangeneem om soortgelyke deurpaaie te beskryf. Boulevards word dikwels met kommersiële en kulturele aktiwiteite geassosieer en word soms vir parades of ander openbare geleenthede gebruik.
