Franse kinderen krijgen West-Vlaams op school

  1. That awkward moment where literally France has a more progressive language situation than Belgium, after a century of hardcore language cleansing. Apart from physically chaining up children by government mandate who spoke Breton/Flemish/etc. they had all kinds of systems in place to kill off all indigenous languages: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbole

    About time Belgium recognizes its indigenous languages (Limburgish,Flemish,Walloon…) as well instead of these repressive language laws that dictate what you can speak based on what the government decides, the rest of Europe has waited 2 decades for us to sign the Charter on Minority Languages.

  2. That’s ridiculous. It’s not even a language. It’s made up and nobody understands that shit. Ahjemoekaknmoejekakn.

  3. Whenever I’m in a discord call and there’s these random moments where I turn around to talk to someone else in the house in “sappig vlaams” while the mic is still hot, my English friends are like: “Are you sure that’s dutch? Sounds like Russian to me “.
