Is everything in Belgium more fun?
The sweetest Flemish words in a row

Just like Henk Westbroek, I have also doubted about Belgium. Often even. My brother lived in Antwerp for a while and I found almost everything there more fun. The houses, the restaurants, the shops, the clothing. In Belgium, it seems like everyone just puts in a little extra effort to make it even more enjoyable. And then the language. Everything sounds charming there and I love their attempts to avoid anglicisms and find a Belgian equivalent. We put the sweetest words in a row…
In random order:
Dry cleaning (stomerij)
Extractor hood (afzuigkap)
Kitten (poes)
Desire (zin, lust)
I feel it in my milk (ik voel het aan mijn water)
Lollipop (lolly)
A little payback (boontje komt om zijn loontje)
For sure (vast en zeker)
Piano (toetsenbord)
Chicken meat (kippenvel)
In student housing (op kamers)
Stay hungry (niet tevreden zijn)
Nauseous (misselijk)
Mouse droppings (hagelslag)
Folding bike (vouwfiets)
Cheater (vreemdganger)
Oh, I love Belgium so much. I doubt less and less.
