I am a native Dutch speaker. And I am from the Netherlands. From the south of the Netherlands, to be more clear, from Noord-Brabant. There are so many nuances in Dutch. I think I recognise that this particular pronunciation of the word "angstschreeuw" was produced by a native Dutch speaker from Belgium. Even though people from the south of the Netherlands have a "soft g", they still recognise (and I am sure it is mutual) the difference between different nuances between people from Belgium and people from the Netherlands. This is just ONE pronunciation of the word "angstschreeuw"... I am sure that people from different places (ALL NATIVE Dutch speakers, mind you) would pronounce it slightly differently, and most of "us" Dutch speakers could still make a well-educated guess as to where that person came from. I think that Dutch is complex enough that most outsiders might never learn the tiny differences, but most native Dutch speakers (many regions of Belgium, many regions of the Netherlands, and so on), could still understand which country it came from, most of the time. Maybe even the province... 68.200.97.152 (talk) 23:51, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
