Its raining pipe steels ! Actually, interesting to see the literal translations - it must be closer to OE :-)

[@iainmarais]

The Further back into the history of English you delve, the more cognates reveal themselves. Many of these words have been lost to later generations due to the influx of latin and later french words. Another good way I have discovered is to do comparative reconstruction of what the most likely candidates would look like had they not been lost to us. I can probably spin up a few as a result of my own learnings. For example if one says "De oude engelse woorden waren aan ons door de loop van tijd verloren.": The sentence in English SVO word order: "The old english words were lost to us through time". The same literal translation in modern english is: "the old english words were to us through time lost". In literal english, and using reconstructed words from old english, you get: "The old english worden weren to us through the lepe of tide forloren.": Note the similarities here between EN and NL. The difference is that OE did not use "on" like this, but instead used "to". Let me give another one: "Ik kan niet Duits spreken" in literal english: "I can not German speaken". In proper english it is "I can not speak German". This is more of how something may be said in Afrikaans, rendered literally in Dutch: "Spreek rechtuit, alsjeblieft!", where "rechtuit" translates to straightforward, which carries the meaning of sincerity or forthrightness here. Taking this into account, we get "Speak sincerely, please!"

[@reeleyes466]

Do you think the word order change in English to a Latin language word order, from French influence, has been a major difference ? Aside from the obvious semantic drift in words that are cognate etc

[@reeleyes466]

it 'stands you in good stead' is still a saying in English, so it must be left from the common way this structure is used in Dutch? In any case, some English speakers or in Britain, might say: "that meal / car / house stands you in good stead"

[@reeleyes466]

Dont know about the US but in Britain people say things like: "he's as mad as a bag of spanners" and other objects ! Mad as a Lorry - that is a good one.

[@rpgcrab3299]

I'm a native English speaker learning Norwegian, and the more I listen to other germanic languages the more I can hear the commonalities. It was much easier to understand the Dunglish through the lens of Norwegian, for example, to say "You look really nice," in Norwegian one might say, "Du ser veldig fin ut," which is literally, "You see very fine out." This is pretty much exactly like the Dunglish example at 3:47 "By the way, you see there really good out!"

[@learndutchwithkim]

Oh how nice is that!!

Hysterical! 🤭 As a native English speaker who worked for KLM in South Africa for 10 years, I would often hear this this type of Dunglish. So cute. I must say that I really admire the Dutch for their efforts in speaking English. Here is a Dunglish question I got once: Do you have a clue when de vlucht will land? 😄

I wonder if some people in South Africa speak Afrikaanlish.

[@iainmarais]

In ZA there is so much word-sharing between the two. Consider the word "braai": In NL it is "braaien", and the closest equivalent is grill, but in ZA we say braai, and braaied sarmies are the best way to cook bread on the braai fire. The reverse is true too, for example the word detail is used unmodifed in afrikaans, as in "ek soek al die details van hierdie voertuig", which in english is "I want all the details of this vehicle".

This is a nice video. I've seen Dutch people write "The serie is..." when the word in English is "series" even if there is only one series. (The Dutch word "serie" for the singular makes more sense, but I think that "series" comes from Latin.)

[@charlieshanowsky6103]

The word "series" indeed comes from Latin "seriēs" and also in Latin it has the very same singular and plular form (at least for the first case). But mostly all others adopted it with singular "serie". French, Italian, Porgugese, even Slavic languages.

in germany exists such a mixture and it's called "DENGLISCH", it's running upon the same principles of "DUNGLISH". I thought that in NL if such a mixture could exists, the name would have been "NENGELS" (Nederlands+Engels) following the principle of Deutsch+Englisch=Denglisch

[@parisgermain523]

Wie Du sagst, auf Niederländisch wäre es Nengels, auf Englisch aber Dunglish.

To call it "Dunglish" is more fun, because it has the word 'dung' in it. "Dunglish" is sometimes also called "Dinglish" here in New Zealand (Swedish - English in Sweden is often called "Swinglish")

[@iainmarais]

Observation by a native english speaker from ZA: There are so many similarities in all the germanic languages, including english and afrikaans, my second native language, itself descended from NL... if you know where to go looking. Over time, a large swathe of latin-sourced (including french) words has displaced much of our germanic wordlist (NL: woordenlijst), or the reconstructed term: "wordenschat" (NL: woordenschat) Interesting point to consider: German native word for German language: Deutsch, and in ZA we have this word: Duits, likely NL: Duitsch (earlier form of what is now: Duits)The most likely English cognate descended from the same root would interestingly enough be: Dutch. And, had we kept our germanic words, we would very likely see things like: Netherlandish, Anglesaxish (inferred likely cognate, means anglosaxon), also our past tenses could still have preserved the ge- prefix, of which a few relics still survive. Consider this word pair: "gelijk" and "alike": the meanings match, and in old english "alike" was spelled "gelic", and in some parts the g was hard, and not /j/ but /g/ rendering a word possibly sounding in some parts as /ge-lik/ Short of it is there is a wealth of similarities and words in common, although spelled differently and over time some of the meanings have changed, but the history is still all there. Another observation just now: NL: horen and english: hear : same word, different languages. Earlier form in english : heren. Here are some minor brainteasers: "I have ye well gehered, mine friend." and "Nay, I have it not geseen" (They are english, but which form?), and let me give the same sentences in dutch, as close as to proper language for a non-native speaker: "Ik heb je wel gehoord, mijn vriend" and "Nee, Ik heb het niet gezien".

Often forgotten: The tongue of the Franks who founded the Frankish empire (France later becoming the western part), i.e. Frankish, became Dutch ('Nederlands/Nederduyts').

I had that once. I am Dutch but lived with someone from the US. We had and have many friends from all over the world. When we still lived together lots of them would stay over at our places They almost all worked in offshore jobs. So they stayed waiting for the next job. Leer downstairs neighbors worked for ESA. So they also had friends from all over the planet and we all talked English with each other. One night we had a party and at the end of the evening a Dutch couple went with us to our apartment with some other people as well. They wanted to speak Dutch with me but after weeks of only English and drinking alcohol I was thinking in English and translated it to Dutch. Nobody could understand what I was saying. Even the Dutch people so we switch back to English. But mainly in English the sentence structure is different and they don't have a feminine and neutral form in language for objects, places and things. Only masculine. In English words can mean different things depending on context.

Quite interesting! It might also be worthwhile comparing the idioms with German. Some of them are shared while others aren't, which gives us some nice sets of intersections to look at among the three languages. But one difficulty for aspiring language learners in my opinion is also the opposite, namely fear of using certain native language idioms in the foreign language, believing they could be wrong when in fact they are perfectly acceptable.

Hi, so at 01:57 you used some Dunglish yourself, we anglophones don't say/write "I want to say two last things", we say "I want to say two final things", or "Lastly I want to say two last things". Clearly you're translating directly from the Dutch version of "letztes". I should not you're not actually incorrect, just the way you used "last" has fallen so into disuse it sounds strange to the modern anglophone listener. :)
