Mooi gelegen tussen de Sallandse Heuvelrug en de heuvels langs de duitse grens, uitstrekkend richting Teutoburgerwald.
Lokaal wordt
Twents gesproken, deel van het
Nederduits taalgebied, of beter gezegd
Plattdüütsch.
For people not speaking Dutch, this wiki-section summarises some information related to the city where I live:
Hengelo, a city in the eastern part of the Netherlands, in the eastern part of the Province of Overijssel, in a region called Twente,
home of a Saxion 'tribe', known in Roman times as 'Tubanten', presently ;-) better known as 'Tukkers'.
They historically share bloodline & language (= Plattdüütsch) with the people living along the common border upto the NorthSea, in Germany reaching further northward till Danemark and eastward to the Oder/Neisse!
