Language troubles

So, my first language is Dutch but everyone around me is kinda annoyed with my bad grammar, don’t get me wrong I can talk it just fine, but writing and under pressure I make lots of mistakes. (Not like it is a difficult language, only the second hardest in the world 😒) Doesn’t really help that I’m a teacher who is supposed to know the language very well. My English on the other hand is way better then my Dutch, because of that I sometimes make Dutch sentences with a lot of English words in them, or with English grammar rules instead of the Dutch grammar rules. Makes my life not any easier. People ask my why I do this and my best explanation is: “because I think in English and the language is way easier then Dutch.” I get a lot of strange looks from people when I say this, I’m supposed to be Dutch. How I hate the language... it’s way to difficult with a lot of none-explanatory grammar rules. Maybe I should read more books in Dutch then in English, but I can find way more books in the English language then I can in the Dutch language, besides I think Dutch writers aren’t really that good. The struggles.

I was in Oslo over the weekend, while @outofthedark was giving me recommendations neither of us could think of the English for fußgängerplatz/gågate Both of us are native English speakers. #bilingual #languageproblems #whatevenisenglish #norge #oslo #norsk

The moment you read something in your target language and your like "Yup, I understand what this is saying" and then someone will ask you to explain it and your just like "I have no idea how to explain this"

I'm gonna post my two stories just as plain text, that means no time consuming images, that way I can make it go faster.

I decided to do it that way so the ones who still want to read it can do it :3 and I can put it as my brain made it. Just keep in mind that it may have horrible errors because English lol same with not having so much detail since there's words I know in Spanish or I use that I can't translate to a proper English. I try my best so at least I hope you enjoy reading it and if I write something hard to understand feel free to ask x) I'll be glad to try and explain it ;u;

At your service

There's a knock at the door. I open it and it's the shower repairman, he steps back, puts his feet together and bows to me. Actually bows. As I stand open-mouthed and slightly confused he comes in, takes off his boots and bustles past me towards the bathroom, tugging at his forelock with his head bobbing. In the bathroom he's already got his tools out, 'It's err, the, oh, sorry, I don't speak Finnish,' I say. He bobs his head. 'You know the problem?' 'Yes, yes,' he says, 'new unit.' and points behind me. I turn and there's a twelve-year-old boy there holding a a box. I almost shout 'shit!' I'm so surprised - I hadn't seen him at the door. I leave them to it. I'm just looking up how to say 'Would you like a cup of tea?' in Finnish when they come bustling past again, making a sharp exit. In a linguistic panic I shout, 'Ole hyvä!' which means, 'You're welcome!'

found a nice little coffee shop / brunch place here in Font...definitely makes me wish I spoke French, haha. I'm learning about a word a day, so at this rate, I should be fluent in about a thousand years. maybe I should try learning two a day? @jee_jet #fontainebleau #french #france #travel #europe #voyage #coffee #chocolate #chocolat #cafe #coffeeshop #restdays #languageproblems #exploring #traveler (at Paul & Paulette)

I took the opportunity of the Met currently streaming its 2009 production of Madama Butterfly to adapt this post into the following TikTok (which also uses footage from the streamed production, duh!):

So the real question of the night is:

Can Cio-Cio speak English. Or are Pinkerton and Sharpless speaking Japanese.

✈: five places I’d love to travel

oh boy uh.

Gloucester. Get to see all of that and mill about Cheltenham again. It was a nice place.

Germany? Yeah. #LanguageProblems, but i can still try? ye.

Canada, maybe? For food festivals and stuff.

Jersey, the island.

Canterbury?

♧: do you believe in luck?

Yeah, to a point. Not entirely in the sense of cosmos-is-at-the-centre-of-all-things-ever, but sometimes, things happen, and it’s pretty incredible (or incredibly awful).

This column made me smile this morning. It reminded me when I followed these Dutch courses because I started my first year in uni. I went to international school, English becomes my first language from that on. One dutch lady reminded me that I live in Holland and I gotta speak the language! I agreed with her big time. I am also grateful for it. After 30 some years, more & more English is used in our daily life ! It is pretty strange for me and we gotta get used to more English in the Dutch society! #dutchlanguage #English #languageproblems #worldchanges #NRC
