First off learning a language is so hard! For the past month I've been trying to pick up the language form the locals, but it's not that easy. Belgium people don't speak one language they just have to have all kinds of other languages to make it that much more confusing! They speak Flemish, French, German, and Dutch. My first question for Dirk was which one do I learn? How do they think with all those different languages being used all the time. We both decided learning Flemish would be the best since over half the population speaks it. It's hard to come into a country like Belgium when there is no native language, so everyone speaks even more languages than I stated before. This is going to be an interesting experience....wish me luck!

ReplyDeleteWow this country sounds interesting, do you have to learn all those languages to communicate regularly or just one or two?
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty cool Jenna. I only know two languages over here in Ireland. You're really cool!
ReplyDeleteFlemish is used a lot, so most communicate regualrly with it, but a lot of people do talk in all different languages!
ReplyDeleteDo people in Belgium ride bikes often?
