As another 'dutch person' i'd like to draw some attetion to the perversion of the word Free in the English language.
Free is demoted to 'Gratis' (as in no price tag)
Here in Europe the word gratis covers that without demoting the word free.
a bird is free
and a hug is gratis.
it would be an improvement to the English language if the word gratis would be included and replace the word free wherever appropriate.
This actually may make English speaking people a bit more aware of the difference.
When you search English parts of the net for the word 'free' then more then 50% is about gratis and NOT about freedom.
When you search sites with languages that have distinguished words like 'gratis' for the word 'free' then 90% of the results is about freedom, and 10% will be about european people who misuse the word free for gratis nic-nac's :-) (So yes, our languages get poisoned a lot by english lingo)
Yes, that is interesting, on the %'s , we miss use words all the time until the true meaning is lost.
