At (high)school most of the people in Holland are learning 4 languages,i.e.
English,French,German and Dutch. Some of them prefer to learn Spanish.
As citizens of a small country you have to learn some foreign languages,
otherwise you get lost on this globe when you want to speak and correspond
with other human beings.
It's very handsome when you go to a foreign country for living and or working.
Sometimes I think to learn Spanish better, because that's also a language
a lot of people speak around the world. Even more than French.
BTW: (For people who can't read Dutch, I'm sorry, go back to school)
Wat een verassing een Engelsman die Nederlands kan schrijven en nog eens niet
slecht. Heb je dat op school geleerd? Was dat een keuzevak? Of heb je een tijd
in Nederland gewoond?
Thanks for your compliments.
Greetings from Rotterdam,Holland.
Andr� Rief.
