Why does Dutch look like what Americans think German sounds like?
There’s only two things I hate in this world: people who are intolerant of other people’s cultures and the Dutch.
This person has culture
Calm down my cocaine
because Americans can’t tell the difference between the two languages
wait German and Dutch are different languages?? I thought it was like how “Spanish” and “Español” are the same just translated into that language…
Germans speak deutsch, whereas the Dutch speak Nederlands. The German language is just called German in English, and the Dutch language is just called Dutch.
Well I speak Flemish, which is…Nederlands.
Where does Frisian fit into this map of weirdness?
No expert myself but what I know is that’s the weird and mysterious one.
The rest is just confusing for those not familiar.I was mostly making a joke, part of the reason Frisian is so weird is because it’s rather ancient. Its an ancestor language of Dutch and a cousin language of English, hell my dialect is so gutteral that Frisian is more intelligible than some rural British dialects.
They are all Germanic languages, so related.
Still there’s some elements in it they can’t explain.
I hear it’s the same with Hungarian, that for some unknown reason has some Finnish elements in it apparently.
You probably already worked it out from that other comment, but we Germans call our language “Deutsch” which yes, is a distinct language from “Dutch”.
This transcends language.
moisturise me
wait pannenkoek? That looks more like a pizza to me but I will encourage any sort of Dutch meme in this community :3
I need to know how bad the Mexican one is. I’ve heard horror stories about Mexican food in Europe.
Mexicans do bastardize the cuisine of every other country (much like the US).
For example, most sushi rolls come with cream cheese in them. You have to ask for your roll without cream cheese.
However, there is also tons more delicious food to find here (also like the US).

And that’s a good thing, it got you the trompo and al pastor.
Interesting, I’m not that familiar with the history. I’m from the US living here. But al pastor is delicious (adobada here in tijuana).
Came from Lebanese immigrants, now a regular fast food.
Obviously they didn’t use pork but lamb (like the pita/shoarma we got to know in Europe) but Mexicans love their pork.
The last years we have some real Mexicans opening restaurants here (Belgium) which are OC good.
But I had to learn to cook it myself (you can buy/order all the ingredients) since I couldn’t wait until it started getting popular.
There is however one French chain OTacos which, opened here and it’s a crime against Mexican food.
The Mexicans should open a court case for reputation dammage.
gore pannenkoek #69420: motorolie
Wtf, waarom. Doe normaal joh. Het is geen pizza
Turkish Kapsolon pancake
Sir, being turkish AND having enjoyed the Turko-Dutch dish Kapsolon I demand satisfaction. Kapsolon is basically döner with Edam/Gouda/Dutch cheese, making it a fusion dish made by immigrants using local ingredients, you can get fucked if it’s not döner and doesn’t have cheese on it.
Kapsalon also has fries underneath the döner. So if it isn’t a pancake topped with fries, döner and cheese it ain’t a Kapsalon pancake.
I feel like the “Swedish” pancake should be a LOT cheaper.
So that’s what his name is referencing…

But first, we need to talk about parallel universes…
This comment really misaligns my QPUs
Can’t stop laughing
My new status: is gesmolten
The original Minion didn’t melt. They were launched to a parallel universe.

Before and after visiting grandma
I read that in Minion voice.
