It is a lovely country but very cramped and flat compared to Ireland. We have lots of countryside. The thing I found the hardest to get used to was being in a car (because they all drive on the wrong side of the road), especially when I was sitting in the back and the person who would be in the drivers seat at home was talking and waving their arms around. And the animals in bars and restaurants.
Nestle. Nobody beats Nestle for their white chocolate and Cadbury's for the milk variety.

bammo2 said:actually laura, I'd say you say it more like 'hrrrrrrrr'
bammo2 said:I've been making a concerted effort to talk with less of an accent, and to use english properly recently.
I'm taking another drama exam soon and don't want to spoil my Queen Margaret from Henry VI part III by doing it in a mansfield accent and saying 'grass' instead of 'graaahss'. Plus, my drama teacher says I've developed a weird way of saying 'I' that sounds like I'm from somerset and work on a farm. Apparently I say it almost like 'Oi'
also, the mansfield accent is ugly.

ik houd van testje
my favourite new dutch word is knuffels, i thought it was pronounced "nuffles" though. i also got a lot of teasing because i couldn't pronounce lekker. i also got a lot of jokes because i can't say hair (hurrr) and air (errrrr) in my own language - from non native english speakers too

Popmartijn said:
It means you, right?
LarryMullen's_POPAngel said:Or so I was told.
How are you today, Marty?
Popmartijn said:
You were told right.
I'm quite OK. A slightly bit because my favourite footy team played only a draw, but nothing too shocking in my life. Not yet that is. The project I'm currently working on probably ends in 2 weeks. They've already probed me about another project. Which will be a year long.
In Germany.
Don't know if it goes through though, but if it does...
I hope it'll be fun, but I'm also a wee bit anxious about it at the moment...

I suspect some Dutch bloke is telling you how to say all of this.
I don't really know any of the Dutch I use here. Well, I do know some. I can hoi, hoe gaat het met jou with the best of them.
