My Dutch is dwindling to the Nether(land)s...

Lately, I've found it increasingly difficult to write in Dutch. How come? Dutch has been my second language for more than 10 years. But it seems that in the 15 years since I left the Netherlands, English has slowly but surely replaced Dutch as my second language. Don't get me wrong, I can still read Dutch without any difficulty. It's just the writing that's been hard. It seems to take an eternity to find the right word or term when I'm writing in Dutch.

Ik denk dat ik opnieuw Nederlands moet leren...
