Ah right. Wow, you learn something new every day.
When I went over to Belgium with school, we only heard English. There was some very good english, in fact most of it was good english, with the odd grammar mistake.
I think very highly of the Beligians. That just makes me like them even more.

belgium is a small country, but it has a good economy. lots of belgians live from tourism, so we just have to learn all those languages to make sure our guest (whatever country they are from) has a good stay in belgium.
it even goes that far that (and this seems to happen often) french visitors go complain in the police department because someone (shopkeeper, barkeeper, ..) couldnt serve them in correct french, and where i live (Bruges) everyone speaks dutch to eachother, some people even don't know french, see the map for more info -.-.
btw: good morning zelaron, dont mind my spelling, its still dark here...
