Mass Effec Galaxy: Wherefore art thou?

We deal with Mass Effect 1 in here, no matter that AHQ can't manage to add the "1" to the place.  PCs and consoles, no handheld anything in here. 

We are currently in an English only Beta Test, with the exception of SimCity, and in English, the word "Effect" has the letter "T" at the end.

Wherefore means why, not where. "Wherefore art thou Romeo" means "Why are you Romeo" (and not someone of a family I'm allowed to have a relationship with). She knew where Romeo was. He was right below the balcony.

It's old fashioned language, but there's a trace in the Dutch language -> Waarvoor, which means why.

Are all Belgians multi-lingual to that extent?  English, Dutch, French?  More than that? 

Don't forget Walon, ("Walloon", in English)!  😕mileywink:

I suspect that I once knew and remembered that dialect had existed, but just haven't had occasion to recall it in so long, it's now gone from memory entirely.

Belgium is a trilingual country. In Flanders (the Dutch speaking region) We have to learn English, French and German in high school. I can understand Afrikaans (as spoken in South Africa) because it is very similar to Dutch. When you live in a small country and your native language is fairly uncommon, it's handy to know the languages of your neighbors.

I can also read a little Old English, but not enough to pass the exam. 😕mileysad:
