G is for geen, gezellig, groetjes, and groentjes
Geen is the opposite of a (I like to think of it as na) and as I’ve written before it’s a word I really like.
Gezellig means cosy, but is used all the time to describe any occasion that is fun really. Though there has to be more than one person, as you can’t be gezellig on your own.
Groetjes is greetings, and I have to be really careful that I don’t slip an extra n in, as groentjes means vegetables and that really doesn’t make sense as the closing of an email!
Original topic, very interesting though. Hope it’s ok to pinch a few words to drop into conversation from time to time ?
Sure, go ahead!

I wouldn’t worry too much, Clarissa. There are worse things one can be wished than vegetables.?
That’s very true! ?
I feel like there might be harsh punishment for solo gezellig.
No, I have been told very clearly that there has to be at least two people for a situation to be called gezellig
