my home language

Something alot of people don't know about me is that i speak two languages fluently. English and Flemish. Flemish is the language spoken in northern Belgium. It is kind of a mix of German and French. My mothers grandparents are from belgium and they thought it would be a good idea to continue practicing the language inside my family. They also gave us a great recipe for waffles but thats irrelevant. My mom, me, my brother, and my sister all speak it. The only person who doesn't speak it in my family is my dad. A lot of questions I get about it is how to say certain things in Flemish "hi how are you" is "hei hovr er du." pronounced hey-hover-er-doo. we mainly speak English in my house because my dad doesn't like when he can't understand us, and we speak English much better. But sometimes just to practice we speak Flemish between the four of us. Were planning a trip to see family we have in Belgium and we need to communicate with them but that trip has never seemed to materialize. i hope now you know something about me you didn't know before. "se deg senere" which means talk to you later.
