I want to teach you some old Dutch/ Audio provided

English as a Second Language What do you want to talk about?

Old Dutch: Hebban olla vogala nestas hagunnan hinase hic anda thu, wat unbidan we nu?

Modern Dutch: Alle vogels zijn al aan het nestelen, behalve jij en ik; waar wachten we nog op?

It means: All birds are already nesting, except you and me; what are we waiting for?

I wonder if someone has a sentence in old German, old English and old French?

What a beautiful bedtime story voice you have! And what an english accent!
You could probably be an engaging story teller!!

And dutch actually sounded really nice! Although I never thought I’d be saying that…; (sorry!)
Where was that line from? A saying? A poem?..

Somehow it brought to mind a very favourite song; ‘The Nits - In the Dutch mountains’. I’m sure you know it!

Hi Vivianna,

Thank you for your kind and motivating words, however I do not know ‘The Nits - In the Dutch mountains’, but I’m going to look it up and I’ll tell you all about it.
