Pertaining

-
The
language
spoken
in
Holland.
-
Originally
the
Germanic
race:
the
German
peoples
generally:
now
only
applied
to
the
people
of
Holland. "
The
word
comes
from
theod,
people
or
nation;
each
nation,
of
course,
thinking
itself
the
people
or
nation
above
all
others.
And
the
opposite
to
Dutch
is
Welsh-
that
is,
strange,
from
wealh,
a
stranger.
In
our
forefathers'
way
of
speaking,
whatever
they
could
understand
was
Dutch,
the
tongue
of
the
people,
whatever
they
could
not
understand
they
called
Welsh,
the
tongue
of
the
stranger.
'All
lands,
Dutch
and
Welsh,
'
is
a
common
phrase
to
express
the
whole
world.
This
is
the
reason
why,
when
our
forefathers
came
into
Britain,
they
called
the
people
whom
they
found
on
the
land
the
Welsh.
For
the
same
reason,
the
Teutons
on
the
Continent
have
always
called
the
Latin-
speaking
nations
with
whom
they
have
had
to
do-
Italian,
Provencal,
and
French-
Welsh.
People
who
know
only
the
modern
use
of
the
words
might
be
puzzled
if
they
turned
to
some
of
the
old
Swiss
chronicles,
and
found
the
war
between
the
Swiss
and
Duke
Charles
of
Burgundy
always
spoken
of
as
a
war
between
the
Dutch
and
the
Welsh.
Any
one
who
knows
German
will
be
at
once
ready
with
instances
of
this
use
of
the
word,
sometimes
meaning
strange,
or
foreign
in
the
general
sense,
sometimes
meaning
particularly
French
or
Italian.
The
last
case
which
I
know
of
the
word
being
used
in
England
in
the
wide
sense
is
in
Sir
Thomas
Smith's
book
on
the
Government
of
England,
written
in
the
time
of
Queen
Elizabeth,
where
he
speaks
of
'such
as
be
walsh
and
foreign,
'
not
meaning
Britons
in
particular,
but
any
people
whose
tongue
cannot
be
understood."-
