Die Laaste Woord ("The Last Word") can refer any one of two South African media works:

Die Laaste Woord, an animated film by Diek Grobler

The original text

Referred to as a poësiefliek ("poetry film"), it is an animated interpretation of a poem called Vanishing Voices by Martjie Bosman, a contemplation of the loneliness of someone who has become the last spealker of a dying language. It is Bosman's response to the preceived threat that her own mother tongue, Afrikaans, may disappear.

In the film, animation artist Diek Grobler creates a character who literally is the last speaker of a dying language, and then goes through the world, seeking someone who can still understand her.

The idea for the animated film was selected as one to be pitched at the Annecy Animation Festival in France 11-16 June, 2018.
