Can I download a language that is not available on my phone?

If you are talking about the language of the menus and dialogues of the OS interface, the answer is "no". To ask Apple to the feature you want, go to

http://www.apple.com/feedback

If it is only a keyboard you need, then you can search the App Store (check the Keyman app).

Not what l was looking for, all those apps just translate. I want the option to type in Afrikaans with word suggestions.

Have you tried GBoard and Swiftkey?

Try

Settings > General > Keyboard > Keyboards > Add New Keyboard....

See if the language you're looking for is there?
