I talked to a primary school teacher, and this was the answer his 9 year old pupils gave when presented with this riddle. I recommend this BBC documentary to be both frighten and inspired. m.youtube.com/watch?v=2DmU...

My favourite Dutch author Annie M.G. Schmidt who, like Roald Dahl, was always firmly on the children’s side against the adults. Some of her books are now in translation.

Thank you so much for this thread. I didn’t know any of this. Going on the hunt for some.

Your guess is right. I think confidante would be the exact translation.

Een origineel Nederlands woord zou goed zijn. Maar als CNN skeet gebruikt zijn we in het Engels te laat.

Welkom! Een post is een skeet. Dus skeeten, denk ik. En ja, het is een verschrikkelijk woord, maar het is wat de Bluesky elders hebben bepaald.

Welcome to our village! Glad you like it. Yes, the going-ons sort of exist on their own plane “de Haagse kaasstolp”, as we say. At the same time it’s entirely possible to run into Mark Rutte at your local Albert Heijn.

The main difference I notice is glue quality; pages just falling out. On the other hand I collect old Penguins and they have so many mistakes.

You’re welcome! This windmill is still famous because of its mustard.

It refers to a windmill called de Huisman that was rebuilt where there used to be a company called de Haan (rooster = kippevrijer).

There is such a puritanical streak in the way we think about diseases like migraines. It’s stress or that one whiskey or that piece of chocolate. Anything but it’s just your brain. I stop talking about it, because I just can’t take the well-meaning bullshit. Love my rizatriptan though.

For me it’s: “…she could always throw her legs in the air higher than any of us... and wider. “ Smith and Rigg together, just wonderful.

Is bumcake better? Koek can sort of mean both.

There’s no verb for spanking in Dutch. You’d have to say something like “Sla me op mijn kont.”( hit me on my bum) or, get ready for this one, “Geef me billenkoek” (give me bumcookie) The above sentence is more “Hit me”.

Yeah, this is bad. Though I don’t rate their chances of getting an exception as very high.

Yes! So much this. Although he toned down, incredibly as it sounds, the Haitian slander from cannibalism to pet eating. The Jones - Trump pipeline has been going on for years.

I think that was smart. It undercuts the entertainers shouldn’t be political argument. She’s making it clear they themselves didn’t leave her a choice.
