Used in a run-on sentence (as if there's any other kind of sentence of which I am fonder): "You know how your smart phone predictive word choice dictionary provides you the option to add in words that you've typed in that it may not think are real words, but it will allow you to designate the word as such in your 'personal' smart phone dictionary -- well my 'personal' smart phone dictionary includes the word 'Dutchified'."
Which is, of course, all the more on-point as my trip back to Leb'non County starts in the morning. I'll try to plant the accent into my dreams tonight Inception-style so that I can communicate with the locals upon arrival (I've a few stops along the way, so I won't get fully dutchified until Sunday).
Hopefully it won't be sprutzin'. And I won't be rutchin' during the long drive. And the hotel rooms and such in which I stay will be ret up. Now onct.
