The Dutch Language
- Dutch is natively known as Nederlands and belongs to the Indo-European, Germanic, West Germanic language family.
- There are approximately 25 million native speakers worldwide.
- Dutch is the official language of the Netherlands, Belgium (Flanders), Suriname, and several Caribbean islands including Aruba, Curacao, and Sint Maarten.
- Dutch is the closest major language to English, sharing a common ancestor in West Germanic, and many English words have Dutch origins including "cookie," "boss," "yacht," and "landscape."
- The language has two main standard varieties: Netherlands Dutch and Belgian Dutch (Flemish), with differences in pronunciation, vocabulary, and some grammar.
- Dutch played a significant role in world trade and colonialism, leading to its influence on languages such as Indonesian, Malay, Japanese, and several creole languages.
- The Dutch language has a system of diminutives (adding -je, -tje, -pje suffixes) that is used far more extensively than in English, even with abstract concepts.
- Dutch migration to Australia was significant in the post-World War II era, with over 150,000 Dutch migrants arriving between 1945 and 1970 as part of assisted migration programs. The Netherlands-born population now numbers around 60,000, with many more of Dutch descent. Dutch Australians have integrated extensively but maintain cultural connections through clubs and the annual King's Day celebrations.
About Cabramatta
Cabramatta is a suburb in south-western Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Cabramatta is located 30 kilometres south-west of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of the City of Fairfield. Cabramatta is colloquially known as 'Cabra' and has the largest Vietnamese community in Australia. In 1795, an early settler named Hatfield called the area ‘Moonshine Run’ because it was so heavily timbered that moonshine could not penetrate. The name Cabramatta, first came into use in the area in the early 19th century, when the Bull family named a property that they had purchased Cabramatta Park. When a small village formed nearby in 1814, it took its name from that property. A township grew from this village, and a railway was built through Cabramatta in the 1850s. It was used for loading and unloading freight and livestock. The railway station wasn't open for public transport until 1856, a school was then established in 1882 and post office in 1886. Cabramatta remained a predominantly agricultural township. It developed a close community relationship with neighbouring Canley Vale, and until 1899, they shared a common municipality. In 1948, Cabramatta's local government merged with that of the neighbouring Fairfield, and today remains governed by the Fairfield City Council. It evolved into a Sydney suburb in the mid 20th century, partly as the result of a major state housing project in the nearby Liverpool area in the 1960s that in turn swallowed Cabramatta. The presence of a migrant hostel alongside Cabramatta High School was decisive in shaping the community in the post-war period. In the first phase, large numbers of post-war immigrants from Europe passed through the hostel and settled in the surrounding area during the 1950s and 1960s. They satisfied labour demand for surrounding manufacturing and construction activities, and eventually gave birth to a rapidly growing population in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The entrepreneurs amongst them were hard at work building all manner and scale of enterprises.
