Ik heb zo veel goed gedaan in het afgelopen tijd en nu dit....geen post met mijn kaarten daarin....nou ja, nog een week wachten en dan maar een feestje in 013 of Club 11.
Bieden goed en ook in NL. Dus ik wacht het maar af...
Goed he...naar 10 jaar heb ik de nederlandse taal *je moet het echt horen...zo stap ik binnen een bedrijf een ja hoor, ik ben klein, charmant en een stem dat veel kennen en om dromen.
In mijn buurt ben ik de alternative mevrouw en de kinderen zijn gek van me...ik van ze en het basisschool van mijn zoon ben ik een ouder die in het "medezeggenschapsraad" zit bij een Daltononderwijs school.
Rond het kerst ga ik een cursus volgen in het gemeente Almere, Orientatie op de lokale politiek.
En als je deze kan vertalen in het engels trakteer ik JOU *iets* (jij maak het zeggen)
GOOD LUCK
MB

As I always suspected: Dutch is actually the same sort of English that crops up in instructions to cheap Chinese electrical goods, but read out in a funny accent.
All the words sound slightly familiar, but the language isn't even slightly comprehensible.
Right now I'm assuming that languages which use the same alphabet don't really count. It's amazing how cocky you get when you can write 'My name is Andy' in Chinese. (Wodo minze shi Andy, if you want a version you can pronounce, as opposed to pictographs and pinyin). I need a much better computer before I can show it to you in its natural state.
MB's challenge is more complicated than my last foray into low-country speak, translating directions to a football stadium in Oostende out of their original Flemish. I've no idea if I got it right, but my colleague got to the match. I might attempt it if I'm short of things to do at work tomorrow.

Any other useful words and phrases are most welcome. Tips on accurate pronunciation would help as well. Along with what colours not to wear in Tilburg.
Bedankt.

Can a bloke not even scratch his bollocks in the privacy of his own home without being snooped upon? This is outrageous.
And that's an image none of you wanted to think about
