Afrikaans has formal and informal modes of speech, and you can learn something about this through the personal pronouns
Modes of formality are beyond the scope of this site, but in general err on the side of caution and use common sense.
For example, if you are talking to someone in authority or much older than you, a more formal style of speech is often a good idea.
But it's your call.
