'Aan die hoge brandstofprijzen zal de regering iets gaan DOEN'.

If I say it in my local dialect, it will sound a lot like German.

Speaking of unique skills, I find French very unique as well. "His life" translates to "sa vie" because vie happens to be female. "what is it" translates to "qu'est-ce que c'est", a _seemingly_ random concatenation of shortened words, in spoken form it is only 3 syllables!
