[quoteost_uid0="Gatac"][color=#000000ost_uid0]Dutch is pretty close to so called "Platt", which is an older Northern German dialect.[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]That's freaky. Our dialect word for dialect is plat.

Yeah, Germans from that region often call us, and I can just speak Dutch to them. :lol: (I refuse to speak German, unless strictly necessary.)
It's also a well-known fact that [iost_uid0]our[/iost_uid0] dialect sounds a lot like German, too.[/colorost_uid0]
