OP "It was one with the no-parking symbol and [the spelling may be off a bit] "LAANGER DAN 1/2 HUR".
That is good memory! Aramis . "LANGER DAN 1/2 UUR" longer than half hour.

"English and Dutch are quite close, both being varieties of Low German. Only Frisian is considered to be closer to English."
Yes, zmjezhd that is true about Frisian. Yet English and Dutch share one famous middle- Dutch middle- English sentence : " Olla vogala hebban nestas begunnan, hinase (without)ic enda tu"
That's about how I rembember it from the first English litterature lesson. It's a well known link, but I should look it up and here it is very late. Wish the world would be flat, this time difference would be less. (I guess)
True. German in it simplest form can be more or less understood without training , but very little. It is a total different language now. And needs real study just like English and French.
