5. language
Dutch is the common language Languages such as Limburgh separate into regional dialects. The Dutch language is very different from region to region.
The main foreign languages are English, French and German . The Dutch government encourages people to study English and foreign languages. The Netherlands, along with Western Europe and Northern European countries, is interested in language education and invests in language education. It publishes large amounts of foreign language education books such as German, Italian, Portuguese, and Russian, such as English, Spanish, and French. Dutch people often study foreign languages as a hobby, because ordinary people are cheap.
English conversation is fluent, and in Europe, English -speaking rates are 90%in the second language among European Union countries such as Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland and Austria. Under the EF EPI of the English Proficiency Evaluation, the Dutch English ability was measured first and second with Sweden. This is due to the fact that Dutch is a germanist like English, so it is easy to learn and the high -level public education in the Netherlands.[13] It is a place where tourists can travel without worrying about language.
English conversation education is also the world's highest level, learning English since elementary school, and all students use English in English classes. Even if tourists ask elementary school students on the roadside, they can hear fluent answers. Dutch students take it for granted only English in English classes, and the educational system is well done so that the classes that only need to be discussed in English can be used naturally with foreign tourists in everyday life.
French, German, and Spanish also provide opportunities to learn from public education.[14] Strange students are common. It is common to talk freely with the Dutch, the British, the French, the Belgian, and the Germans.
The Netherlands can specify official language other than the Dutch language. One of them is a unique language used in the Freslands and the official language of the Fresland, which is somewhat different from the Dutch language . There are many Dutch people with English names.

[1] In Dutch , Je is the second person, but this motto is written in French . In Dutch it is "Ik zal handhaven".[2] Due to the Belgian Revolution in 1831 On July 21st, independent Belgium was officially recognized.[3] Most of the administrative offices, the National Assembly and the Royal Palace are located in The Hague .[4] Including the overseas territories of Aruba , Curaçao , and Sint Maarten, it is 42,508 km².[5] It borders the overseas territory of Sint Maarten .[6] Dutch 72.0%, Other 9.2%[7] Mainly, when the Netherlands colonized Indonesia, the mixed race between the Dutch bureaucrats and the Indonesian concubines and its descendants and colonists[8] #[9] #[10] In addition to the 12 states in mainland Netherlands, there are 3 autonomous states and 3 territories in the Caribbean. See Administrative divisions of the Netherlands .[11] Aruba uses the Aruban florin , Curaçao and Sint Maarten use the Caribbean guilder , and the Caribbean Netherlands uses the US dollar .[12] The Caribbean Netherlands , Aruba , Curacao and Sint Maarten are at UTC-04:00.[13] Dutch is more similar to German than to English. The languages closest linguistically to English are Scots and Frisian .[14] If you are a student who wants to major in language at university, there is also a system that can be learned in preparation for higher education.[15] The elevation of the capital, Amsterdam, is also -2m.[16] It is a place called Valzerberg, and it is a tourist place where the border of the three countries of Germany-Belgium-Dutch meets at one point . For reference, the highest point is the Seneri Mountain in Sava Island, including overseas territory, not the mainland of the Netherlands.[17] A region called Utrechtse Heuvelrug.[18] There wasn't even a dock.[19] In the same vein , there are a significant number of people of Indian or Malay ancestry among Dutch African whites in South Africa .[20] He is known in Korea under the name ‘Ruud Gullit’, which is pronounced in English.[21] Place of birth: Belgium He is from the Flanders region, and his mother is Belgian, so he has Belgian nationality as well. He competes in F1 as a Dutch national.[22] In 2015, he made his Korean debut as Fantine in the Korean reenactment of Les Misérables . Since then, he has appeared in Rent , Notre Dame de Paris , Aida , etc.[23] The official nationality is the Netherlands, but he is a foster woman of the Doss family adopted from the Republic of Korea on the Korean peninsula .[24] His official nationality is the Netherlands, but he is from Greece , as an adopted son of the Drost family .[25] It is revealed in episode 281 of Horangeosa, Part 6, that he was originally from the Netherlands, but his appearance changed while training martial arts to become a ninja. It's no wonder that even the blond handsome female Narnae has a story with a history of making it like that...
