Morning all, well I had a great night's sleep and awake to find Rich still going. Remember Rich you said "as someone of Belgian descent, I wish to inform you that in Belgium, several languages are spoken: Belgian, French, Dutch, Flemish, German, Italian and others.. this is why Belgian posters are in French, Flemish & Dutch or German and sometimes some English also" You were imparting information as fact and by saying you were of Belgian descent you in effect were trying to reinforce that statement.
I simply asked (politely) "I always understood Flemish was actually the Dutch language and that there was no such language called Belgian." I didn't even bother with the Italian statement because that was plain silly...but you know that now don't you? Then a whole lot of other people confirmed that basically what I had said was right and as you hate being corrected you lost it, once again.
So go ahead show me where: (a) Belgium is a spoken language (b) Flemish and Dutch are not essentially the same thing (c) and an example of a Belgian poster printed in German - I'd be happy with 2 out of 3.
