well, considering I didn't use google translate to translate it, I have no idea if that is a good or bad thing.

dus, wat vind je van Nederlands tot nu toe?

I would say it's a good thing - if dutch is your native language, your english is good enough to say exactly the same thing!

Multilingualism.

is that even a word??


and the reason why I said that I didn't know if it was a bad or good thing is because I know that google translate has problems with grammar and stuff.

Yes, yes it is.

Oh I see! Well rest assured - it was fine :)

And your english is an awful lot better than my dutch...

but unless you are dutch or are a Belg(I just discovered that I don't know the correct names in English of anything related to that country so I probably have it wrong) that lives near The Netherlands that isn't really a problem.Or of course live in another country that talks dutch

edit first taught was: apparently

Did you ever hear most dutch people when they try to talk English? It is disgusting.
*shrugs*

Its never bothered me; when I was in primary school, we had a dutch kid there for a year or two, Mark-Jan. We became quite good friends, and in all honestly I actually quite liked the dutch accent in english!

And pronunciation doesn't have to be perfect - especially with english! I just wish I could speak anything other than english :(

Then you are very lucky that you met someone who can speak it at least somewhat. I can give you one advice if you ever want to go to The Netherlands for some weird reason(as you can tell I really like The Netherlands :p) wait a bit until most of the older people don't work anymore as they are the worst. That doesn't say the rest aren't bad because they are but at least the worst is gone.

Inthelittlewood is the online name of Martyn Littlewood, who did the song Screw the Nether! :p now part of Yogscast, but previously had considerable success in his own right doing spotlights on the updates, and later snapshots, for Minecraft.
