Hey all,

Just wondering does any-one ever think it might be usefull for it to have another language option.

Even if it is other Languages. Just posting this cause I am dutch and want to know does anyone else speak the language.

Like Dutch is missing out of that list. Im sure there are other countries aswell that are missing that people from boards would know.

Anyways does any one here speak dutch??? Srry for posting this in admin and no its not a suggestion for a new forum. Its been bugging me now for quite some time.

Cheers

So you don't want to be mod then???

Runfree · 29-01-2003 4:28pm

im sure I had a big argument over this allready and I dont care if I am Mod or not.

Its not a suggestion for a new Forum but where else am I going to post this. Not in the regional as I live in Tipperary.

Dutch is just another language I know, just like german, french, english and south african.

Mountjoy Mugger · 29-01-2003 5:18pm

Gawd, give me strength!

OK - what about an Elvish (or, is it Elven?) forum? There's a lot of discussion in it over in LOTR at the mo, and I'd like to brush up on it in the right place.

Runfree can be mod....

Runfree · 29-01-2003 5:30pm

domeara01 · 29-01-2003 5:31pm

koneko · 29-01-2003 6:11pm

Hey Runfree,

Here's a thought. Do you speak Dutch?
No?

Then shut up.

Klootzak.

domeara01 · 29-01-2003 6:13pm

Typedef · 29-01-2003 6:14pm

ja, ik spreek nederlands. Heb je daar een probleem mee?

kanker rufter die je er bent.

So the overall anwser is yes koneke. but really I am going to stop posting for today as my general question was does any one else speak dutch. Its just a question which I wanted an anwser to.

Cheers

domeara01 · 29-01-2003 6:17pm

see i told you

domeara01 · 29-01-2003 6:19pm

mmmmmmmmm cake good

koneko · 29-01-2003 6:20pm

You're full of mysteries. Like loch ness.

The Dutch thing was brought up before. I think 3 people said they spoke Dutch. That was it.

Was it MindPhuck? Or someone else on the CS scene?

hussey · 29-01-2003 6:21pm

ja I spreek nederlands, mmmmmmm thats ones a keeper

my mother is dutch, I went there every summer till I was 17,

a place called Oss, my brother used to know Ruud Van N .. when he was 9

Gordon · 29-01-2003 6:22pm

Actually I think it's a good suggestion. Just like the "Abroad" forum in the Regional section. Mind you the existing languages fora aren't that busy are they?

hussey · 29-01-2003 6:24pm

Geen zijn zij niet bezig

koneko · 29-01-2003 6:25pm

Tbh I would have thought the Japanese forum would have people on it. I thought some people here were learning. I was going to take it up but couldn't find the time so it ended up in my To Do pile.

domeara01 · 29-01-2003 6:26pm

loch ness is full of mysteries. just like your mother
