must brush up on the aul flemish like....

Bumpman · 07-27-2006, 02:16 AM

"Amn't" isn't a word. The last thing you have to worry about is flemish.

Probably best not to use Cille's line. Belgians are a bit more sensitive than the Dutch, and it will probably have the opposite effect

but i'm available for dutch lessons if you want them

and as for a typical flemish sentence, if you want to say to some hot Belgian guy that you like him, say " Ik zie u graag"

Aisling · 07-27-2006, 08:27 PM

do i say it phonetically?

marloes · 07-28-2006, 12:18 PM

It would be something like this:

Ik = Ick

zie = c

u = pronounced as the German "für", I can't think of a similar vowel sound in
English

graag = also doesn't sound like anything in the English language. For the
Flemish effect, pronounce the g's softly. Pronounce the vowels like
in "yoga"

Aisling · 07-28-2006, 07:45 PM

tome.
prolly wont be saying it much though.
how do i say two beers please?

marloes · 07-29-2006, 06:18 PM

Can I have two beers please? = mag ik twee bier alstublieft?

mag = soft g, the "a" should sound like it does in "car"

ik = ick

twee = make the "ee" sound like A

bier = beer

alstublieft = ahlstübleeft (a like in car, ie = ee, like in beer)

soda · 07-29-2006, 06:27 PM

don't forget to see The Veils, they are excellent. Went to london last wednesday to see them. Brilliant!

ok, the basics of dutch is really to sound like you have a sore throat and are trying to cough up some slime... like this [kra rarrra ra rarraaa grrrraa ik kirragraat ik hurrrarten]

easy as peas.

marloes · 07-29-2006, 09:23 PM

yeah, that's pretty much it!
But Aisling is going to Belgium, they don't cough up slime like we do! They are more refined

cille · 07-29-2006, 09:37 PM

belgians cough up beer instead..?

marloes · 07-29-2006, 09:43 PM

Yeah, Hoegaarden!

there is no english equivalent for it. that's why they have such difficulties pronouncing certain german words...
