Thank you so much for these detailed and interesting explanations, Tarvos.
I think I have to find a subtle way to make my Flemish colleague say "verf" now to hear this in practice....poor guy...he is my guinea pig... 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Haha, wow, that's so cute! I love that. I guess the extra e in "stoemelings" threw me off a little. This actually put a huge smile on my face at work. Thank you for explaining! jeff_lindqvist - You're good!! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Beginner's luck, maybe? ;) Jokes aside, I (think I) have a good ear for sounds. That's it.

Hey all,
Ik wil hier iets schrijven alleen maar omdat ik team oranje wil volgen. Ik heb een beetje Nederlands gestudeerd, en mischien 2015 of zo zal ik het weer verbeteren. Bedankt alles voor de websites en informatie, programma's en zo die ik volgend jaar zal gebruiken, mischien. Veel succes! ------------- Translation: I want to write something here only because I want to follow team oranje. I have studied a bit of Dutch in the past and perhaps in 2015 or thereabouts I will work in improving it again. Thanks for the websites and information, programs and so forth which I shall use next year perhaps. Good luck! ------------- As a side note i'm tempted by wanderlust. I'm doing French at the moment and am sorely missing Dutch, altho I do enjoy French very much so. I have a definite soft spot for Dutch tho. But I have sworn not to pick up another language until I at least reach B2 in French, as I found juggling multiple languages in the past just didn't cut it in terms of making serious progress. So until then... which it may very well be mission B2 in Dutch. So I shall work hard in French to get back to my Dutch! I wish you all the best! Tot de volgende keer! Until next time 4 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Hee PeterMollenburg, welkom bij het team! Je Nederlands leest hartstikke goed volgens mij - weet niet hoe lang
geleden je daarmee bent begonnen, maar het leest wel goed. Veel succes met je Frans. :-) 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Dank je wel Hekje, erg aardig van je, Ik hoop dat jouw Nederlands gaat goed? Veel succes! Ik ben ongeveer 10 jaar geleden begonnen om Nederlands te studeren, maar dat betekent niet veel omdat ik heb tijdens 8 van die tien jaar mischien geen Nederlands gestudeert . Bovendien heb ik alle die tijd samen niet gedaan. Daarom heb ik twee keer veel van mijn cursussen gedaan. Mijn vrouw en ik zijn ook 5 maanden in Maastricht gewoond (2011). Ik hoop dat we terug naar Nederland over een paar jaar om weer in te wonen gaan doen, maar wie weet het op dit moment (Altijd heb ik veel dromen!). Tegenwordig is het soms niet zo moeilijk om Nederlands to schrijven, denk ik. Maar nu ook begin ik om veel woorden te vergeten. Ik moet Frans sneller leren! PM ooops... forgot to translate: Thanks a lot Hekje, very nice of you, I hope that your Dutch is going well? good luck! I began studying Dutch around ten years ago, but that doesn't mean a lot as I only studied (actively learned Dutch) around 8 out of those 10 years (max). Moreover I didn't do all that time together (in one long lineal path). Therefore I've done a lot of my (Dutch) courses twice. My wife and I also lived in Maastricht for five months. I hope that we return to live in Holland in a few years, but who knows at the moment (always have a lot of dreams!). These days sometimes it's not so difficult to write in Dutch, I find. But now I've also begun to forget words. I must learn French faster! PM Edited by PeterMollenburg on 20 February 2014 at 11:00pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Copied straight from Pesahson over at Team Sokoły (Thanks Pesahson!), and thought this would be a great way
of getting a little practice in for all of us also. So if you feel like a bit of extra practice, feel free to answer these as thoroughly or concisely as you please. Geniet ervan! 1. What do you most often do when you're on the Internet? 2. What was the last thing you've read about (blog, article) or listened to (podcast, radio) about? 3. What is the biggest news story in your country right now? 4. What was the last conversation you had about? 5. Do you like to know what's always going on in the world or do you find news depressing/irritating? 6. Are you a morning or a night person? 7. What is the first thing you do when you get to work/school? 8. How do you get to work/school and how much time does it take you? 9. What is an absolute must-see in your city/country? 10. What is the best thing about your city/country? 3 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Ooh, I love the survey Vos! I want to do this later, but for now, I'll drop a poem for our February challenge.
Rotown magic By Jules Deelder Rotterdam is niet te filmen De beelden wisselen te snel Rotterdam heeft geen verleden en geen enkele trapgevèl Rotterdam is niet romantisch heeft geen tijd voor flauwekul is niet vatbaar voor suggesties luistert niet naar slap gelul 't Is niet camera-gevoelig lijkt niet mooier dan het is Het ligt vierkant hoog en hoekig gekanteld in het tegenlicht Rotterdam is geen illusie door de camera gewekt Rotterdam is niet te filmen Rotterdam is vééls te ècht English Rotterdam is unfilmable The images change too quickly Rotterdam has no past And not one "stair gable" Rotterdam is not romantic Has no time for nonsense It isn't open to suggestions Doesn't listen to bulls*** It isn't photogenic Doesn't seem prettier than it is It lies square, high, and angular Tilted in the backlighting Rotterdam is no illusion Awakened by a camera Rotterdam is unfilmable Rotterdam is much too real ...Anyone else agree? I do find Rotterdam pretty intimidating, actually. :-P Edited by Hekje on 26 February 2014 at 4:35pm 2 persons have voted this message useful |
