Are there any Belgien people here?
« on: October 07, 2013, 03:19:48 pm »
Hello, i was wondering if there are (like me) people from Belgium on this forum?  ^-^

Indien ja, hallo! Ik ben eens benieuwd hoeveel belgen (of Nederlanders) hier opzitten.
Thank you!

Gezien het aantel keren dat "Nederland" in de uRuler packing video stond schat ik het op een hand vol mensen.
Considering the number of "Netherlands" in the uRuler packing video I assume there are a few dozen Dutch people here.

Belgium. The land where the sky is grey and it rains 300 days a year.
That's why we invented Fries, waffles, beer, chocolate and diamonds.

It was that, or prozac ...

Mooi, mijn vader is geboren in Waregem  ;) . Ik heb juist Dave z'n nieuwe video gezien, die doos kwam van jou toch ? Fantastisch en interessant materiaal! Je mag mij altijd eens zo'n doos toesturen hoor  ;D . Als een 16 jarige student in de elektronica (VTI Roeselare) is dit alles (Forum en video's) gewoon super interessant.  :)
Na wat research over jou heb ik ook ontdekt dat je toch wel een "big deal" bent in de elektronica wereld  :o . Mijn kennis is nog in zijn kinderschoentjes maar ik ben zeker bereid om deze uit te bereiden. In school zijn we momenteel nog bezig met OPAMP schakelingen en Logische poorten vereenvoudigen, Karnaugh kaarten enz... tegen het einde van het jaar moeten we al een beetje een FPGA programmeren, daar kijk ik wel naar uit :) . Ook met µC zijn we bezig, dit jaar beginnen we met C (MPLAB, htc compiler, PIC). :-+
Thank you!

Gah! All this Dutch, I feel like I got forwarded an e-mail from work from someone who just assumed from my last name I spoke Dutch or German.

Jep .doos kwam van mij. Maar nog zo ene samenstellen is een ander paar mouwen. Ik heb nu al hemel en aarde moeten bewegen om dit spul te mogen vrijgeven.

En dat 'big deal'.. Ik ben maar een klein visselke hoor... Maar kheb wel al flink wat watertjes doorzwommen :). En dat is nu net het belangrijkste. Lees alles wat je te pakken kan krijgen. Vroeg of laat kom je een situatie tegen waarbij je iets te binne. Schiet wat je aan paar jaar terug gelezen hebt.

Isn't Spanish the second language in the US? A couple of months ago I talked to some relatives who live in the US (near San Francisco) and they send their kids to a Spanish school because its closest to their home.

I spoke Dutch because it's (one of) the motherlanguage(s) in Belgium. I also wish that everybody in the world spoke the same language, or english.
Thank you!

Det mærkeligste er, at jeg har kunnet læse det meste af tråden. Altså på nær den del, der er på kaudervælsk (eller er det mon walisisk?)

There are no Belgians only Walloons and Flemish... I'm the more Belgian, because I came from somewhere else, and I don't speak any language which is spoken here. 8)

Not necessarily. I live in the San Diego area about an hour away from the border and most of us gringos hardly speak any spanish. I studied it for 4 years and I can somewhat understand it, but mostly the attitude here is "speak english or get lost".

But that is changing, nowadays it is easier to get a job if you speak both english and spanish, not on high tech. companies but in other areas.

We latinos have a impact on the economy of this country ( USA ).

Habla español ?

Ik kom uit Nederlands Limburg, maar heb in Genk op school gezeten.

Ik ben nu bezig met het hele traject van Dirksen Opleidingen, dus blijft er geen tijd over om wat te knutselen of veel op Internetfora te posten.

Heel veel groetjes iedereen.
