since 2013 learning dutch
After being forced to go to Egypt and staying there for 6 years, I got a chance to move to the Netherlands in 2018. I faced a lot of new things and big challenges in a different country, one of these challenges was definitely language. I signed in an intense language course 4 days a week 4 hours a day for 6 months. Now that sounds harder than it actually was as i found out. The dutch language was very amusing to me and relatively easy to figure out, there are a lot of similarities with English and German, my favourite word in the Dutch language is by far the word for 'grumpy', do yourself a favour and google it just to hear how it sounds, it's 'chagrijnig'. The Dutch is one of the few languages which has the خ sound we have in Arabic, the G in Dutch, which makes me think of my second favourite word in Dutch, 99 'negenennegentig', I know very long and very amusing to say haha I had to learn the language for many reasons, fi
