Hi Ron and other Lowlanders,
Duutsers bint ewend um bi'jveurbeeld in Nederland in redelik goed
Duuts anespreuken te worden. Umgekeerd spreekt Nederlanders in
Duutsland ok Duuts; allene "vertaalt"ze dat vake uut 't Nederlands.
Dat gef nog wel is problemen. Ze zegt b.v. niet "Ich werde anrufen"
maar "Ich soll bellen"!!!. Wel goed Nederlands veur telefoneren, maar
veur de Duutsers lachwekkend, umdat doar alleen een hond bel(l)t. Zo
vindt de Duutsers het nogal is vermakelik dat in Nederland hier en
door bördties op de deurposten zit mit de tekst " J.Jansen 2x bellen"
of: "Aan de deur wordt niet gekocht". Over 't algemeen is 't zo, dat
Duutsers en Nederlanders mekaar goed kunt verstoan. Alleen hebt veule
Nederlanders moeite mit de naamvallen, maar dat hef niks mit de
verstoanbaarheid te maken.

Groeten, Dick.
