I’m from Suriname and live in Mexico.
I speak Sranantongo, Dutch, English and Spanish fluently.
I also speak some French and LSM.
Welkom @Anouska !
Wat betekent “LSM”?
Lengua de señas mexicanas
Muy bien, @Anouska! Gracias para explicarmelo! Esta existe también en Alemania (Soy alemana): DGS = Deutsche Gebärdensprache.
Ooh that’s nice.
I´m from Suriname and we have ours for Dutch.
Leuk!! Ik ben Nederlands, maar woon in Peru. Misschien spreken we elkaar wel in één van de language practice rooms :). Ik ben trouwens erg benieuwd naar Sranantongo!
That’s awesome, welcome! I travelled to Suriname a year ago and I loved it! I was trying to pick up a bit of Sranantongo before my trip but I unfortunately ran out of time to do it, although it was fascinating to see how well everyone spoke English too.
Yeah , right.
A lot of different languages are spoken there
Dag Anouska!
Lovely to see that Suriname is represented! I was living there for a few months last year, an unusually diverse country I must say
Hello and welcome, it’s nice to meet you
What was the most unusual thing you experienced?
nice to meet you 2 Rina
Ho boy … Maybe sleeping in a hammock in the middle of the Surinamese jungle? Or maybe attending government meetings?
K heb veel nederlands in dit conferenns gesproken (mijn is niet perfect) maar een keer verzoek ik om e surinaamse accent te doen! niemand in dat moment herkende het. heehe
Cool, I also speak a creole language. Mauritian Creole. I’ve listened to Sranan, Njuka online.
Oh nice,
and is it similar to yours?
My creole is based on French, just like Haitian and Reunionnais.
And Guadéloupéen-Martiniquais.
