As you might know, the official languages of Belgium are French, German and
Dutch.
You are better of learning French, as that is a world language, that will
serve you better in many countries around the world.
For questions about Belgian culture soc.culture.belgium may also be an
interesting source.

As you correctly pointed out, Flemish is a dialect of Dutch, which means
that the Dutch and the Flemish even have troubles understanding each other:
their television series are subtitled !
So the actual region in which you can use Flemish is, very, very small, even
smaller than you would think.

No. Never. I hate French too much. Even though I intend to live in Ath (Aat)!

I don't need world - I need only the Netherlands and Germany.

Yes - that's only Belgium - nothing more.
So Flemish can be called "Belgian" language since it's not used outside Beglium.

Possible for the first time English may be OK? Since you all seems to speak
English in Belgium because instead of learning language of the other 1/2 of
Belgium you prefer to study English (or e. g. Esperanto) - to understand ALL
world, - true?

P. S. I also thought that have made an error by posting in be.politics but
soc.culture.belgium appeared to be... frankophone one! :(

Re: Dutch language in Belgium.
 

If you intend living in Ath, that's in french speaking region, so
either you learn french or go in the Flamish region...

what a lof of bullshit
poster has indicated he will live in Flanders and therefore he should
learn a language that is spoken in flanders and not in the other
part of the country.
French is no longer the language to learn. Napoleons's time is
history..the internet is english :-)

You should also tell op that the economic heart of belgium is in
flanders where 6 milion people speak flemish(the majority of
belgium) - Dutch:-)

If you come to live in the Dutch speaking part of Belgium, what use
would learning french have? By the way the french spoken in Belgium is
also a dialect, just look at the smiles on the French people when a
Walloon is speaking what he thinks is French.
The Dutch you can learn on the net is understood by the Flemish
people, some words have different prononciaton but it's not a real
problem.
For real information about Belgium and centrainly Flanders, it's
better to look on the net then reading a forum dominated by the french
speaking people in Belgium.

I don't think "wasdana" could be understood by non flemish speakers! So I
agree Flemish is a dialect, not a language. so it isn't possible to learn
dutch in Flanders, as 99% of the flemish can't speak dutch

I think you better start to learn french; just to know what language
is really spoken in Wallonia !

The french-magyar Belgian !

(ik kan het ook in het nederlands als het moet; maar het zal
natuurlijk in het ABN zijn, niet in je dialekt !)

Yes, it is, definitively !

And even "nonante" !
Take any french dictionnary, and look at it !

If you are not a "Taal-iban", and can understand a bit of french, have
a look at here: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/70_%28nombre%29

Septante and nonante are used in south Belgium, but also in Luxemburg,
in some part of eastern France, in some part of the former Duchy of
Savoie, in Switzerland, in Congo, in Rwanda...

I told you, you better learn french before talking about it !
