What Kim is trying to say is that the -tje at the end of your name probably indicates that you're Dutch (or know the Dutch language). It's a postfix indicating a smaller version of said word (although, with your Dutch background you already know this
).
All of her "styrofoam peanut commune" talk is just the American way of saying this.
Really?
-tje is a postfix indicating a smaller version?
And it indicates I'm Dutch or know the Dutch language?
And I have a Dutch background?
Damn, I must be suffering from some really serious memory loss!
Cause I can't recall anything like that.
OK, OK.
I was just teasing you, IWasBored.
All in good fun.
Don't get mad please.
I'm Dutch.
Although I have been living in the US for the last 4 and a half years.
Martijn, it would be really problematic if I didn't understand what IWasBored was trying to say as far as the -tje is concerned.
Me being a Dutch language teacher and all.
But what I wanna know is: how do you know about the tje, IWasBored?
