# niets te danken

I don't know what that means. I only know 'dank u' and 'alstublieft' and even that might not actually be Dutch.

# Oh ok, I'll remember that one.
Although I don't know when I will ever use it. I only learnt 'dank u' and 'alstublieft' for being polite to the Dutch lorry drivers who used to deliver to the garden centre where I worked.

If I can ever afford it, I must go back to Amsterdam some time. Very friendly people :)
