Amsterdam is one of the coziest block-buster cities I know of, so I'm sure you had a lot of fun there. You speaking Dutch would probably be even cuter, but perhaps that's a bit unappropriate for me, a stranger, to say. So, 'na veel vijven en zessen' (which is a Dutch proverb), meaning: after a lot of unnecessary chit-chat, I'll leave you alone. Good luck with your studies, you'll need it!

I speak schoolboy French, a tiny amount of German (just enough to confuse me now I'm learning Dutch) and I spent five years studying Latin but, of course, I can't speak a word of it. All that was at school but now I'm trying to learn Dutch. Hi Justin – thanks for the comment and for visiting Bad Language.

German helps. I stumbled into your fine blog a couple of weeks ago. I wish I explored your blog earlier. I enjoy your posts a lot. Thanks for the wonderful works! By the way, how many languages do you speak? : ) Regards, Justin Hi, Matthew,
