It's the ugliest word in the Dutch language.

Well it's actually Afrikaans, but that too is our fault.

At least you can say that Flemish Belgians speak funny-sounding Dutch without feeling like a horrible oppressing racist slavedriver boer, because it's not the Dutch fault that the Flemish lived too close to the French and so their language got all wonky. Or "wonquoieux", as they say it.

But Afrikaans is a really really cute language.
