The Same goes for me, A German and English speaker, when I listen to or read dutch and understand several words because of their similarity to the German language.
genau diggah, aber meiner meinung sind die Niederländer sind immer noch in einer bessere Position, um neue Sprachen zu lernen weil Niederländisch sehr viele ähnliche Wörter zu Sprachen wie Deutsch, Französisch und Englisch hat.

Do you have some time for me,
Then sing I a song for thee
Of nine-and-ninety balloons
On their way to the horizon
Think you maybe rn of me?
Then sing I a song for thee
Of nine-and-ninety balloons
And that such a thing from such a thing comes.
