Nokia Grammar mistakes
I think my cellphone just made a grammatical booboo. In dutch there are rules on how to conjugate a verb. It includes adding d, t or dt at the end of the conjugated verb depending on the person. For instance:
I drink water : ik drink water
He drinks water : hij drinkt water
You drink water : jij drinkt water
Looks easy? It is actually.. well sometimes. Anyway, the problem is that when you do something like this:
drink water! : drink water!
There is no t at the end. When my cell phone claimed it was sending a message, it said:
Verzendt kaartje
. where do I send the angry letter to?
I pour myself a cup of strong coffee. :-)
