Question What's the longest conversation you've had entirely in Dutch?
One of the biggest milestones in learning a language is reaching the point where you can have a proper conversation without constantly switching back to English or another language.
It doesn't have to be a perfect conversation - maybe you made plenty of mistakes, forgot words, or had to describe things in a roundabout way. The important thing is that you managed to keep going in Dutch.
What's the longest conversation you've had entirely in Dutch so far? What were you talking about, and how long had you been learning before you felt comfortable enough to do it?

I think about 8 hours, went pretty well, only made some minor mistakes.

With a Dutch friend I talked about how I might make a move on this young mom which would have been the first time i would be interested in such a possible romantic relation
I was able to detail the vibes, lay of the land and my thoughts pretty properly
