I was just wondering about all the Europeans (excluding UK)… like do y’all understand… say, an American movie or TV as well as those in your national language?

    I’m Dutch and I speak fluent English. Not because “all Dutch people speak good English” but because I have a Master’s in English language and I lived in the UK for 30 years.

    My job is fixing terrible English written by Dutch people who think they speak good English (and that includes government ministers).
