Since I've seen a lot of weird things on the internet, I wonder what people from other countries (mainly USA) know/think about Belgium.
Just answer the poll below, no need to debate (but feel free to if you want to, it's just not the main point of this thread).
I don't see American on this list OP.
im from holland... ik weet dat jullie nederlands praten en een klein gedeelte frans
I thought the entire world spoke English. The world does revolve around the US, no?
Is there a primary? I was under the impression it was primarily French and Dutch, with a small batch of German, but all three are considered primary languages.
There's this website called wikipedia. You may have heard of it. I bet a quick search for Belgium would tell you what you want to know.
Edit: according to http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgium , the French region is the largest, followed by the Flemmish region. The German region is considerably smaller. So your question is kind of a trick question, since there are 3 primary areas, but the French-speaking region is most prevalent.
As this shows, Dutch is the #1 first language with 55% of the populations speaking it first. French is next at 36%, followed by German at 0.4%. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Belgium
I'm confused, are you asking what Americans think Belgiums speak, or asking Belgiums what they speak? Sorry if Belgiums is not the correct form, no insults meant.
