The perfectly normal anglosaxon surname Bill is quite silly in dutch cuz it means buttock . Cut is also funny because with spelling kut it's a vulgar word for the female sexual organ.
Most funny of all is the english grammar that doesn't have different verb forms for plural and singular or for formal and informal forms of adress. It's sounds like a children's language for anyone who has dutch, german, french or spanish as his first language, for those distictions are of crucial importance for everyone, in every culture I know of. mile:
