    Weird Luxembourgers critizising her for at least learning some basics for such a short trip while being fully aware that people live in this country that stay for 10+ years and are not even willing to even say the slightest 'Moien' smh. Yes she has a strong accent and everybody would know that she is indeed Dutch; but it's perfectly understandable; which is expected because most Luxembourgers can fairly well understand some Dutch without ever learning it. She's doing great.

      Well, I did the Celtic Bachelor so it was forced upon me, but it was a nice challenge that made it clear imediately in block 1 that I would be having a good time during my studies. I prefer Welsh though, which is like Old Irish but without stemclasses and no prototonic/deuterotonic distinction in the verbs, which although fun, make Old Irish soooo difficult to grasp

      Hi! Mostly grammer focussed during block 1, and translations in block 2. It takes quite some skill to be able to translate such old texts, so I really struggled with that! Plus, it all went super fast. 6 hours of class a week wasn't even enough for me, I need more time to be able to fully understand this.
