Dutch words that are much better sounding than their English equivalents.

The collection of my ten months in Holland.

1. kip = Chicken, also kippen

2. vogel = bird

3. pinderkaas = peanut cheese = peanut butter

4. sluitel = key

5. maar = but

6. dui = ok (dooey). Often I hear maaaar, dooey and then gggg - as in a good throat clear.

7. gracht = canal

8. gogh, as in Van Gogh, now clear your throat

9. kuiker = look here

10. youngen = youths

Ok, it's not Italian or French, but there are some cool words.
