    Dutch, but only because I’m tired of Dutch people telling me I really shouldn’t have bothered when they find out I learned to speak Dutch.

    I just like learning different languages because it lit|really provides new frameworks of understanding for me, goddamn.

      I think it’s worth it learning dutch if you nail the accent, especially common ones found 50 years ago (as in dubbed Pipi Longstocking).

      Nou ja zeg!

      Dit zelfver-nederland-cultuurtje moet blijkbaar
      nog altijd blijven opkijken naar de taal waar het hoofdland
      op dit moment verder afglijdt naar het fascisme.

        Hey, can you translate this to English?

        Because what Google gives me doesn’t make sense:

        This self- Dutchifying culture apparently still has to look up to the language, while the main country is currently sliding further towards fascism.

          Tsk tsk!

          This selfhu-miliationland-culture* apparently
          needs to keep looking up to the language where it’s main country
          is currently sliding further and further towards fascism.
