@0xabad1dea Hopefully it goes away with getting used to Dutch, at least that seems like how the confusion got reduced for me with other languages.
@lanodan I am extremely used to Dutch. I have been using it every day for five years and the test is just a formality. That's not the problem 😂
@0xabad1dea do you also sometimes confuse words between languages with slightly similar phonetics? my brain has been known to mix up bits of Spanish and Japanese
@outfrost for me it really has nothing to do with the phonetics, it's just that my brain sorts everything into "English" and "not English" and when I reach into the second, I get what I get
