Hi Elisabeth. I didn't even know we had so many people speaking Dutch as a first language.
My first language is Dutch, my first name is a French verb (with the accents officially, but I leave them out on computers because of the risk they put lots of #$%^&* out there instead).
Oh, I feel a story coming up... haha.
Thanks for getting people enthusiastic about languages. At 50+ Mike and I are now learning Bahasa Indonesia. Beautiful language. And beautiful country.
Languages are the gateway to people's hearts. And a great way into a country and connecting to the local people.
Happy language learning, happy traveling...
