salaam aleikum habibi

>>213562494
I think the key here is the double letters

>>213562557
If we used double vowels like Dutch it would be more like
>Vi haar et serioest probleem
I guess Dutch just got the short end of the orthographic stick

>>213562463
Wait a minute... Are you telling me that this small country right in between England and Germany has a language that sounds similar to English AND German? Whaaaaaaaat??? HUUUHHH!?!?!? WHUUUUHHHHH!?!?!?!?

Jealous of our superior country?

>>213562884
Yes. I am Dutch on a spiritual level.

>>213562463
cute little cummable faggot he's poised to take all my fucking cum

>>213562636
it looks silly when written but is very useful if you want to preserve the vowel length

>>213562918
Based

>>213562636
nah having no accented letters is very convenient to write or type, it's just retarded foreigners who don't know how they work or are pronounced. i don't blame them but please shut up when you don't know what you're talking about
and we have this thread every day

>>213563168
>its more convenient to type 2 letters instead of 1

>>213562979
it looks silly to you
>what do you mean you're writing ö as eu that's dumb.
it isn't. i'm not going to defend dutch spelling and pronunciation to someone completely ignorant and boasts about it as well

>>213563168
>i don't blame them but please shut up when you don't know what you're talking about
Foreigners don't fuck those vowels up just because they have diacritics, that doesn't make any sense at all. They fuck them up because those vowels don't exist their first language at all

>>213563245
i had to type ö using three keystrokes so yes. shift+¨+o. perhaps you have a designated key but it's easier to type two letters than having to use some bullshit accents, at least for me
again, it might look weird for those who can't into vowels like "eu", "ui", "ij","uu", "oo", "ee", ect but that's on you

>>213563299
>eu
what if you eant to convey a long eu ?
do you write eueu ?

>>213563400
that's weird i just press the ö on my keyboard
åöäöåäöäåäöåäöåöäåååååå

>>213563382
bit of both. the "ook" everyone likes to make fun of sounds almost the same as oak in english. feel like i'm repeating myself. it's total ignorance that makes it funny to others because they don't know how our language works. again, shut up when you don't know what you're talking about. i don't comment on swedish either, except your accented letters just now, but only to clarify

the bullying is getting to me

>>213563440
eu is already long, it would be like writing oooo. but i'm no linguist at all so i'm half talking out of my ass here. still half sure my dutch is better than most posters ITT

>>213563525
i kiss you to make you feel better
*smooch*

>>213563400
>i had to type ö using three keystrokes so yes
because the letter doesn't exist in your language
>>213563525
Only a spelling reform can save your language

Ik ook!! Ik ook!!!

>>213563648
holy shit the english keyboard looks so retarded
>tiny enter key
>huge retarded shift key

>>213563648
>because the letter doesn't exist in your language
...so we write it as eu? is this concept really this difficult, jesus. just saying one is not particularly better than the other, but one is easier to type if you don't have all the snowflake letters on your keyboard
anyway i'm repeating myself, i'm going to leave it at that. thanks for staying polite. i might call other total retards itt in the very near future but that's just me enjoying my anger

>>213563712
we don't even use querty here, it's azerty. i have a ç, à, é, è, ù, µ, and i never use those baka (not that i have to). some french bullshit that found its way to here
but two different standard keyboards in belgium might have been impractical. it doesn't bother me, just to me total redundant keys

>>213563712
That's only American keyboards, we have the Euro style enter key in bongland. We also have a slightly different keyboard layout to them.

>>213562387 (OP)
Frinks is a failed country and you will always be shit eaters.

>>213563924
how does it work in Belgium?
you go to the tech shop and you have an Azerty for Francophones and Qwerty for Dutch on the shelf?

>>213566156
azerty both north and south. i realise we're the odd one out. i don't know any better but a more standard keyboard was presumably a better option. it doesn't bother me unless i have to type on a foreign qwerty as i'm not used to it at all and i have to lock my eyes one what buttens to press because the muscle memory goes out of the window
