I'm learning Dutch so I can eventually move there, what phrase is that? Wasn't mentioned here
It's "mieren neuken".
A dutch person responding to my post already mentioned it.
Also, as somebody who has moved there first and then learned Dutch whilst living there, I do recommend just learning it over there since it's a much faster way to learn a language when you're there surrounded by native speakers, with lots of things written in Dutch around you and with Dutch TV and Radio whilst actually using it, than it is as just learning from the outside with little in the way of useful practice with the actual experts of the actual language.
Also you can easily get away with using English in The Netherlands whilst you're learning Dutch - in fact if you have a recognizable accent from an English-speaking country it's actually hard to get the Dutch to speak Dutch to you in the early and mid stage of learning their language since they tend to switch to English as most Dutch speak that very well.
