What's NL? Why Americans always write their state names in abbreviations and expect people from other parts of the world to understand?
NL is the ISO standard abbreviation for The Netherlands and considering our history in the world (both good and bad) I assume most people understand where it is from....
Ok, sorry mate. As Americans always does this, I assumed you're from USA. My mistake. Have a good rest of the day.
Fair I understand it, I run into the same issue, but tying The Netherlands is pretty annoying especially with the amount I talk about it haha and a lot of people do understand what I am talking about.
Good day to you as well
