I was close. Thanks for your much appreciated awe, though it is really not that complicated.

Nilp, I am sure you know far more languages than me! I can only read a lot of different languages (and most of them are dead anyway)... but speak merely Dutch, German and English. And as you can see, these languages are often so alike that if you know one, it is fairly easy to learn another.

I allways love to hear people speak dutch because it sounds kind of like danish, but then not at all. If you understand.
Yeah I do. You listen and listen and think you must be able to understand something, because it all sounds so alike and yet you cannot make out a single word.
