Haha! Yeah. It is a bit tricky, I agree. And it does have a few funny sounds, like you mention. It does have a few similar words to english and swedish (swedish being my native tongue), so it is not as difficult as it could have been I suppose. My main problem is that I do not get enough practice. I only speak english at home (even though my BF is a Dutchie), so the little I have learned is mostly gathering dust at the moment...and language courses are extremely expensive for some reason.
I would like to learn the language fully, but I expect it will take time.
Ah, yes. I thought it said something to that effect. But it was very nice of you to translate it for me. ^^ And as I said, I really enjoy your sketches and drawings too. So looking forward to seeing more of them!
