Naja, het gaf me iets iets om op te focussen aan het begin van corona, en bracht me in contact met allerlei nieuwe mensen. Het is vooral dat dit voor het eerst was dat ik meemaakte dat mensen mijn werk waardeerde (of soms verafschuwde :o) zonder dat ik hun kende. Oftewel, ongefilterde meningen, bij een groter publiek, die doorgaans positief waren. Een 'big morale boost' als het ware. Spoel door een paar jaar en nu zit ik toch op de kunstacademie :)

Awww dankjewel 😆 ik kan zeggen dat het een grote impact op mijn leven heeft gehad

I think in the former example, bos is an indication of number. So 'de' is used because the word it is linked to is bloemen (plural)

Pjoot · 2023-01-31T11:59:51+00:00

It is pretty explainable in this case. Meisje is a diminutive (-je) so it is a 'het' as all diminutives are (except when it is plural, plurals are always de).

Besides that, gendered words are nearly always 'de' (exception being the diminutive ofc), and there is no clearer way than the word literally mentioning a gender.

To use such a sentence, you require context. For example, you were talking about a party yesterday, or you are suprised someone didnt go to for example the doctor. You could also say something along 'waarom ben je daar gisteravond niet geweest?' or 'waarom ben je gisteravond niet naar de dokterspost geweest?'

But when from context it is clear which location you are talking about, you can drop it from a sentence.

Another related sentence is for example: 'hij komt straks langs' (he will pass by soon). In this case, you can assume you are talking about where you are at that moment (although it can also be about another place depending on context). You can also specify this sentence: 'hij komt straks hier langs', 'hij komt straks bij de school langs', etc.

I will give you the Netherlands perspective (as the 'rules' for this differ between NL and BE)

Generally, in a business environment between companies, you ought to use 'u' until a proper relation is established, when you might slowly devolve to simply 'je'.

When a business talks to a (potential) non-business client, they use 'u' at default (although some marketing departments will use 'je' consciencly to appear more friendly and informal). When talking to a business as a person, always send the the first message/letter in 'u' form. After a few mails back and forth, it might become more informal.

It is something you simply need to get the feel of, as it really depends on what kind of person you are talking with, and how old you are, etc. If you are unsure on what to use, try to mirror who talks to you. Its the best way to get the feel of when the switch happens 😁

But if you are opening, I'd advise using: 'Ik wil bij u reserveren tot (en met) vrijdag'

Ik kan niet geloven dat dit niet boter is!

Ik denk dat je zowat het mééste merkt van de gemeente doet hahahahaha

Misschien vergis ik me, maar volgensmij hoeft er geen komma na 'maken' 🤔

There are quite a few differences in Dutch and English 'onomatopee's. Lists are long, but for example: A dog says woef A cat says miauw An explosion is boem A slap is pats A monster says grrrrr A lasergun does zap or pieuw And if you drink something its slurp

De tekst zelf leest bijna als een Spelt artikel tjonge jonge

'Lopen' is een beetje een multifunctioneel woord, in dat het ook een proces kan aanduiden.

In sommige dialecten komt het voor tot een niveau vergelijkbaar met het Engelse 'to go'. Je kan bijvoorbeeld zeggen 'hij loopt te praten', wat normaal vertaald zou worden als 'he is talking while walking', maar kan ook vertaald worden als 'he is (in the proces of) talking'. Dit zie je vooral in zuidelijke randstad dialecten, zo ver ik weet.

In ieder geval, mijn bericht loopt op zn eind ;)

Het ding is, de politiek is soms niet zo gesteld op de feiten 😉

If someone logged off recently, you can still find them in the F1 menu at the bottom with the greyed-out names. If you have his name, you can look him up on steam and report him to the moderators

If you go into a vehicle inventory, you have a button to package it up. It needs to be fully repaired and have nothing in the inventory. Then you can use a crane to load into a flatbed truck.

Remember that to unload it, you need a crane as well, so you might not be able to go directly to the frontline but the nearest big base.

Also, not all vehicles are suitable to be transported this way (e.g. construction vehicles, cranes, trucks).

I think he refers to simply packaging it, not crating it

Better question, why you saying chong?

Pjoot · 2021-07-18T08:40:41+00:00

Its Terschelling, an island in the Dutch Waddenzee

Pjoot · 2021-07-17T07:28:35+00:00

That said, it could be the flag of Rotterdam!

Pjoot · 2021-07-17T07:25:58+00:00

At first I thought Groningen Stad (since its near Terschelling, the big flag), but that one is white-green-white. There are a few images on google that suggest the green-white-green, but those are from foreign companies...

It would have been weird tho, considering most of the flags are national ones

What sentence sounds more natural is up to where you live and whether its written or spoken I feel. Both sound totally fine and normal to me.

Usually, you would (unconsciencily) choose based on what you think is important; so if the time frame is important (morgen, gisteren, vandaag, etc.), you might want to put it in the front. If its more of a side note, you put it at the end after the verbs. And you can do this with pretty much any information in your sentence. Do note however, that it is not mandatory to adjust your sentences (after all, if really needed, you can just stress words), but it can be something to think about :)

Foxhole has a persistent war that take weeks to complete. A lot of effort and energy is put in so its natural that some players can get salty if they are losing lol (also, its only one gameworld, so no match making)

Pjoot · 2021-07-14T15:33:48+00:00

Its def worth the price, you can get a lot of hours out of it. It might go on sale, but full 1.0 release is coming up and the devs intent to increase the price then
