Flemish Language Facts:

Flemish is the term used for the various dialects of Dutch spoken in Belgium. Most Flemings consider themselves to be speakers of Dutch as do most linguists. An exception is SIL International, which has classified the the dialect group as a separate language and granted it a unique language code.

One of the variants of Flemish is the standard Dutch spoken in Belgium, which is slightly different from the standard in the Netherlands in vocabulary and idiom usage. Belgians speak Dutch (at least the Flemish part; Walloons do not generally speak Dutch) with a softer accent, not empathising so much with the "spitting noise" made with words such as goedemorgen ("good morning") or recht ("right"). This southern standard is largely of Brabantic origin. Belgian television networks often feel obliged to add Dutch subtitles to programming, so that viewers can fully understand what is being said, especially when the speaker has a heavy Randstad accent. In some areas this standard is rarely spoken and only known by many from written texts. This can be compared to the relationship between Americans and Britons, where the differences are rather less important though: a better comparison could be made by referring to the difference between the Cockney dialect of London and the local dialects in Scotland. These differences in part originated and are kept due to the fact that historically, distinct political entities have governed today's territory of Flanders and The Netherlands. This is not exclusive to the Dutch language; it also occurs with, for example, Portuguese and Galician, the variant of Portuguese spoken in Galicia, Spain (although in this case, contrary to the case of most Flemish speakers, many Galicians feel that they speak a language distinct from Portuguese).

The remaining variants consist of the Dutch dialects spoken in Belgium. These "Flemish dialects", as they are often called by the layman, do not form a unity however: i.e. they are not more closely related to each other than to the dialects spoken in The Netherlands.

Finally, however, there are among these also real Flemish dialects in the linguistic sense, that are spoken in the old county of Flanders (about a third of the Dutch-speaking region in Belgium), among which the most deviant is West Flemish.
