  1. But for that, I should learn some basic frisian language phrases 🙂

  2. Richard Bos & Alexander Russchen - De Slachting by Boksum In rare hou foar de Friezen yn ‘e Tachtichjierrige Oarloch

    (Henk Wolf - Fryske Oersetting.

    Zag dit vanmiddag in de boekwinkel in Dokkum en het leek me een leuk boekje om wat Fries mee te leren.Helaas is mijn Fries veel te slecht en vooral te passief om een recensie in het Fries te schrijven.

    De geschiedenis over de bloedige slag bij Boksum van 17 januari 1586 wordt verteld via de ogen van drie drankzuchtige ex-studenten die van de Universiteit in Franeker zijn getrapt.

    Veel leuke visuele grapjes en het Fries was voor mij goed te volgen. Zal het boekje nog eens herlezen en elk onbekend woord en gezegde opzoeken.

  3. ‘We’re a bit jealous of Kneecap’: how Europe’s minority tongues are facing the digital future | The Guardian, by Stephen Burgen

    There’s an Irish saying, tír gan teanga, tír gan anam: a country without a #language is a country without a soul.

  4. Enjoying a taste of our trip as I wrote my earlier post. Frisian sugar bread.

    Yes, it's as sweet as you might imagine 😂

  5. People that speak #Frisian, please help with our research by answering the following question:

    What is your favorite Frisian web page?

    At least 90% of the text on the page should be Frisian. If you have a favorite Frisian website, then try to choose your favorite page on that site.

  6. As announced, I also completed the Western #Frisian translation for #snac #snac2 and sent a PR for it. My Dutch PR was merged already \o/.

  7. @HannaEsmeralda_ Ah goeie? Wat is dyn namme? Wer wennest do?

    That's #Frisian for hello, whats your name, where do you live. It's my minority language

  8. BTW I'm still working on my project of making a blog/website about language learning, and especially #dutch and #frisian , but also other #nordic #languages like #norwegian and it's culture.

  9. I'm translating a book in the Dutch language which is a dictionary of the Frisian language. I don't speak either.

    TIL that orerdrachteljjk is orerdrachteljjk, and you'd have to be a linguist from the 1800s to get it.

  10. Today's find at a small thrift store. The title caught my eye: although in #Utrecht, the book appeared to be #Frisian. And indeed, it contains #folktales in Frisian, told by Steven de Bruin, last of the storytellers in a family of boaters and people from what we call 'De Heide' ('Heath').

  12. Went #cycling in the #frisian woods today. Went for a #bike #ride of 25 kilometers. Not bad for someone who needed a doctor 2.5 days ago right?

  19. Time to update my #introduction! (No, I did not move instances.)

    I'm
    #queer in enough ways to qualify as bowl of letter soup, and go by ae/aer primarily and she/her pronouns. I am #polyamorous, with a heavy preference for the kitchen table variety.

    I'm neurodivergent; diagnosed with cPTSD, ADHD, and strong suspicion of ASD - your basic, complicated auDHD-package. I'm
    #complicated, #obnoxious, don't have a good grasp on human interaction, and generally speak like a pedantic textbook.

    I'm a polytheistic
    #pagan and turned my back on the Christianity that my father preached - I guess it's true what they say about the kids of the preacher and the miller's cattle.

    I am
    #German by nationality, #Frisian by heritage, and after moving through Germany quite a bit currently live in the #LowerRhine region.

    I speak
    #German and #English confidently, can understand enough #Dutch to possibly not get lost too much, and have a pitiful grasp of #EastFrisian. Thanks to #TheHu, I want to learn #Mongolian at some point.

    I love
    #writing (if I can get myself to pick up the plotted out, in parts drafted 4 novel project again) and #photography. I have a complicated relationship with #sewing that contains a lot of profanity in the process.

    I have a varied taste for
    #gaming mainly on the PC, where depending on my current obsession I'll mostly play things like #Skyrim, #KerbalSpaceProgram, #Terraria, #HeatSignature, #Cyberpunk2077 or another old favourite of mine, which might be something vintage PC from the 90s, or even something from the #Amiga500.

    I like
    #scifi and #fantasy, and would give a lot for a resurrected #Pratchett. The world needs his kind of anger now more than ever. I also love things #space! Always a bonus: a well-built #villain or not squeaky clean character.

    I was born in the last year of the 70s (which would be 1980
    😆). Talk nerdy to me.
