Let's watch a couple of other fragments from the tremendously hilarious show Alles kan beter. The first extract is evidence that French-speaking students of Dutch are not the only ones who make mistakes when saying the plural form of a noun:

"Harder trekken…"

"Hij zit te lachen?"
"Ja, 't is een nieuwe functie."
"Zet dat toch af!"
"Sorry, mannen, voilà voilà!"
Sorry for not being quite able to transcribe tussentaal correctly…

And once again for those of you currently studying taalvariatie and some things about Dutch and Flemish dialects, they could be interested in watching this other video featuring Jean-Luc Dehaene:



I won't transcribe anything: I'm definitely not able to do so.
