	Flemish (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		However, the word "Flemish" may refer as an adjective to the many dialects and as a substantive to a few more generally used varieties of the Dutch language spoken mainly in Flanders and neighbouring regions.
		This southern standard is largely of Brabantic origin, though this also shaped the northern standard since the Hapsburg persecution of protestants and Antwerp's decline because of the Dutch blockade of the river Schelde caused a mass emigration to the Netherlands.
		Flemish television networks often feel obliged to add Dutch subtitles to programming from the Netherlands proper, so that viewers can fully understand what is being said, especially when the speaker has a heavy Randstad accent.

		Flemish language, member of the West Germanic group of the Germanic subfamily of the Indo-European family of languages (see Germanic languages).
		Generally regarded as the Belgian variant of Dutch (see Dutch language) rather than as a separate tongue, Flemish is spoken by approximately 5.5 million people in Belgium, where it is one of the official languages, and by a few thousand persons in France.
		So closely are Flemish and Dutch related that the difference between them has been compared to the difference between American and British English; however, some scholars hold that they have diverged sufficiently since the 16th cent.

	Linguistics
		Linguistic context is discourse that precedes a sentence to be interpreted and situational context is knowledge about the world.
		Linguistic changes like sound shift is found in the history of all languages, as evidenced by the regular sound correspondences that exist between different stages of the same language, different dialects, and different languages.
		Linguists identify regular sound correspondences using the comparative method among the cognates (words that developed from the same ancestral language) of related languages.

		Flemish is a spoken language formed by a collection of dialects spoken by the Flemings (the inhabitants of Flanders).
		Basically Flemish is Dutch as it should be, the Flemish speak a better Dutch as the Dutch do because the Dutch keep on 'raping' their own language by using English, French or German words and ignoring some basic grammar.
		Linguists usually speak of separate languages when two dialects have evolved to a point where they are not mutually understandable anymore.

	Germanic Linguistics
		The West Germanic languages are English, Frisian, Dutch, Flemish, Afrikaans, German, and Yiddish.
		Lastly, vocabulary furnished evidence of a common origin for the Germanic languages in that a number of the basic words in these languages are similar in form; however, while word similarity may indicate the same original source for a group of languages, it can also be a sign of borrowing.
		Written Dutch evolved from the Flemish spoken in Flanders and Brabant in the 15th century; modern spoken Dutch, however, grew out of the vernacular of the province of Holland.

		This need was addressed by the Flemish Inter-University Council’s (VL.I.R.) decision to commission a pilot study for developing a methodology to assess research performance in humanities and social sciences at the four major Flemish universities.
		A second questionnaire was sent to 227 Flemish scholars and 545 colleagues abroad, examining their perceptions on the quality of journals, publishers and currently active Flemish scholars.
		Discrepancies were found between actual publication practices of Flemish scholars and a Flemish ‘quality standard’ as expressed in their own ratings of journals and publishers.

		The Flemish culture and language (in the Netherlands) are under siege by all that is American.
		Due to the fact that the Walloons and the Flemish resemble each other physically, and live in close proximity, advertisements have to use distinguishing qualities and characteristics to describe cultural differences such as dressing.

	Flemish Sign Language Dictionary
		The linguistic part of the research took place at Ghent University, in cooperation with the Department of Germanic Languages — CLIN (Centrum voor Linguïstiek — Centre for Linguistics) of the Free University of Brussels.
		The development of the dictionary required the cooperation of a Deaf native signer and a hearing Dutch-speaking linguist, since native speakers/users of both languages are necessary when creating a translating dictionary.
		These variants developed in the Flemish deaf schools and the regions in which they are used more or less correspond with the five Flemish provinces: Antwerp, East-Flanders, Flemish-Brabant, Limburg and West-Flanders.

		Dutch language, member of the West Germanic group of the Germanic subfamily of the Indo-European family of languages (see Germanic languages).
		One reason for this divergence is that written Dutch evolved from the Flemish dialect spoken in the culturally advanced Flanders and Brabant of the 15th cent., whereas modern spoken Dutch grew out of the vernacular of the province of Holland, which became dominant after the 16th cent.
		Also, written Dutch is relatively uniform, while the spoken language has a number of dialects as well as an official standard form.

		Language was at the heart of his views, and loyalty to his cause was most important, more important than loyalty to his country, Belgium, where the position of the Flemish people and their language was not quite equal to that of the French and the Walloons at the beginning of this century.
		Moens was a radical; he chose for the Flemish interest as he saw it and, in doing so, against the Belgian state, which he regarded as anti-Flemish.
		During the second half of the 1920s the sense of Flemishness grew strongly, although it was mainly restricted to Roman Catholic circles.

	Language Log: More on Sign Languages
		The Flemish Sign Language (Vlaamse Gebarentaal) is quite different from the sign language in the Netherlands (Dutch Sign Language, Nederlandse Gebarentaal).
		The Flemish Sign Language is closer to the sign language used in the southern part of Belgium (Belgian-French Sign Language, Langue des Signes de Belgique Francophone), where the spoken language is French.
		The Flemish Sign Language, the Dutch Sign Language and the Belgian-French Sign Language all have most of their roots in the French Sign Language, just as the American Sign Language does.

		"West Flemish (in West Flemish, Vlaemsch) is a group of dialects, spoken in parts of the Netherlands, Belgium, and France.
		There is a considerable overlap between West Flemish and some neighbouring Dutch (Flemish) accents and many linguists therefore consider West Flemish a Dutch dialect."
