>>4033419oh, i totally forgot matthew wasn't full dutch. yeah, kind of lowers the odds of her learning dutch in that case. i wouldn't expect her to learn it in that case either. actually, i'd say it does a disservice to the host country (America/Canada/Australia) if you keep raising your kids as if you're still in the old country. if you're so patriotic, you shouldn't have left.
>that's also the reason i never learned frisian as a kidyeah, meant to ask you about that. not learning it as a kid is kind of a missed opportunity imo, but i never really felt as strongly about regional languages. you should at least ask your dad to teach you some swears and shit. the fun stuff.
