In Afrikaans, both "ronde" and "rondte" are used, but their usage depends on the context.

1. **"Ronde"** is used in a literal sense, such as referring to a round or circular shape.

2. **"Rondte"** is used in a figurative sense, often in expressions or phrases.

For example:

- **Literal Usage:** "Die wiel is in 'n ronde vorm." (The wheel is in a round shape.) [1]

- **Figurative Usage:** "'n Gerug doen die ronde/rondte" (A rumor is going around.) [1]

Always consider the context to choose the appropriate term. If unsure, observe common usage in similar expressions or seek advice. [1]
