Do you like speaking Dutch?
Not so much. Because I like speaking English at home and Dutch in school. 'Cause I'm supposed to speak Dutch in the school. It's hard for me to learn so much. Because I don't know some of it.
[Which parts don't you know?]
Lots of different parts. Lots of different parts I don't know. The parts that aren't in English.
[Which parts do you know?]
Een vlinder en een vlieger [a butterfly and a kite]. "Tjoem zet de vlieger en de vlieger om hoog"... [my best guess at translation is "Zoom went the kite and the kite went up high" -- he continues singing an elaborate song about a vlieger that's too quick to transcribe].
I have nothing to say in Dutch because I already know Dutch. Dad, I only practice it once a day.

It's good that you're learning more than one language. ;)
