Anyone on here speak Dutch?

  1. baysearcher and I are looking into trying to get a group buy together for some 123 distributors. They are made in Holland and we could do with someone who speaks the lingo giving them a call to see if they do group discounts/costs etc etc.

    Cheers

    thats all i know ... but i do know some dutch people - so PM me with what you want translated and I will ask if they can help.
     
  3. But I dont think they will make the calls - they can translate emails etc

    Have you e-mailed them/called to see if they speak english? i think you'll find they probably will.
     
  5. I can speak in a Dutch accent if it's any help ?

    a lot of the Dutch can speak English for sure . chances are 1 person at the company can ..maybe

    I am 1/2 Dutch but i have enough problem with English so never had the language passed on and as most of them speak better English than me its not a issue.

    If you need someone over there to sort anything out or take a delivery to pass on let me know i have lots of family over there who would help.

  9. yesh , for sure
     
  10. My housemate is Dutch, if you email me the questions you want answered I will ask him if he will speak to them.
     
  11. I learnt a bit of Dutch 8 years back. They just spoke back to me in English every time a tried to use it! Just say your Dutch is rubbish. 'mine Nayderlands iss slect' (spelling based on pronunciation).
     
  12. lol!

    They dont have an email address or we would have done that. May try and call Thursday but things like 'group buy' and especially 'discount' I dont think they will understand. ;)

    For those that offered, if I get stuck I may have to take you up on offers. All I know is something like waar is een coffeeshop :D
     
  13. you'd be surprised - the dutch do a lot of Global business ...
     
  14. looking at their website - i am 100% sure they would have no issues talking to you ...
     
  15. my wife's dad is Dutch
     
  16. My dad used to say i talked double dutch

  19. I have been to the Netherlands many times and have yet to meet a Dutchman that doesn't speak English, just ring them, I really can not imagine you having any problems!!!
     
  20. You could sweeten them up by complimenting them on having a lovely back.
