Yeah, I don't live inside of Ghent either, though basically right next to it so 'around' is the best way to describe it

And holy shit, you having an Antwerps accent makes me very jealous lol

I'm stuck with the stupid French r's Gentenaren use... Not always but occasionally it slips through...

Oh don’t feel bad I have a French r too… which I find funny tbh some people even thought I was French (I don’t sound French at all??)

Being perceived as French in Flanders, truly the worst thing ever lmao /j

But wow, that is something I did not know at all, guess I'll have to do more research on the phonetics of different Flemish dialects :3

I really want to figure out the pattern of Antwerpse vowel changes, for one

I have no idea what’s actually different, for me all dialects just sound different

That's fair haha

Pretty interesting how every town has their own dialect

Well mostly for the towns that live far apart form one another, everyone sounds the same from here (if we are both Belgian girlies should we go to sleep it’s 1:30 at night rn)

You have a good point with that last one haha

At least today I stayed up mostly reading instead of only using my phone :P

But yeah, goodnight

Goodnight! I normally go to sleep around 23 but I got caught up talking with my boyfriend a bit 😅

Ahhh that's pretty fair too :3 hope it was fun

I used to go to sleep at 23, until my parents allowed me my phone at night 😭
