emigrated from in the Netherlands. My mom says that she knew how to speak Dutch, but didn't teach my grandmother. ---> There was a policy untill well into the sixties that emigrants should not look for other Dutch people or speak Dutch to other people. If they wouldn't do that, they would integrate much quicker. That's one of the reasons why not many emigrants speak Dutch anymore. ________________________________________________ The rattan basket criticizes the palm leaf basket, still both are full of holes.
