    my belgian friend has given me a challenge that i need help with. can you please help?

    she has issued 5 questions in dutch and expects 5 answers in dutch, but i am american and my translations are very bad. online translators are not much help because they are never correct grammatically and they do not understand slang or jokes.

    the questions she has issued are:

    1.Wat zijn de ingrediënten van een Vlaamse curryworst speciaal en hoe noemen ze een curryworst in Nederland?

    2. Van welk volk waren de Belgen zogezegd het dapperste, en wie deed deze gevleugelde uitspraak?

    3. Hoe worden boterhammen in het algemeen genoemd in West-Vlaanderen? Wat is de Nedersaksische benaming? (spelling is niet belangrijk)

    4. Welk paneel van het Lam Gods is nog steeds niet terecht en in welk jaar werd het precies gestolen?

    5. Welke trappist is tegenwoordig enkel nog te verkrijgen aan de abdij zelf en niet in de winkels? Welke trappist is overigens de enige Nederlands trappist?

    -----

    i know that my translations are bad, but this is what i think she is asking:

    1.What are the ingredients of Flemish Curryworst and what is curryworst called in the Netherlands?

    2. Who are Belgians said to be braver than, and who made such a proclaimation?

    3. What are slices of bread called in West-Vlaanderen and how many are in a loaf? (correct spelling is not important) (i think she may be asking about careers in West-Vlaanderen?)

    4. Which panels of the “The Lamb of God” are still missing and when exactly were they stolen?
    5. Which (something) [Who?] is only in the abby and not the shops, and who is the only dutch (something)?

    ---

    as i said, i know that my translations are bad, but if you can help please do! i need the translations in english please, and the answers in both english and dutch.

    1. a Curryworst is called a "Frikandel" in the netherlands.
    2. Julius Ceasar said that about the Belgians... in one of the "Asterix" comics anyway.
    3 I think it's a bit mean to ask for the "Nedersaksische" word for Boterham because the Low-Saxon language is used from halfway the Netherlands to the Polish and Tchech border and each region has their own dialect,the 9 dutch low-saxon dialects alone already give about 20 words for boterham :sleeping:
    4. I thought Mary had the Lamb :confused:
    5. La Trappe is the only dutch Trappist
