I agree, and I love how it has these younger words with a vivid etymology, how it shares so many common roots with English, German, the Scandinavian languages, and a serving of French, but also sprinkles of many other languages from its seafaring and otherwise trading history. And I love the grammar rules that allow one to be precise and concise in many things (but there we must definitely bow to German).
Water bearer makes much more sense, thanks! I did notice the images where a guy carries a jug, but as a kid, I always imagined the water man to be some kind of elemental, and I never consciously challenged that idea. Haha.

Why? Not sure, but it might be because of Simon Stevin who insisted we use Dutch words for mathematical concepts, and thought up some words like “evenwijdig” (“same distancey”) for “parallel” and “wiskunde” (“certainty knowledge”) for mathematics.

The opening quotation marks should be on the bottom, but it’s been a while since I wrote them that way. Luckily, the wiki page (in Dutch) shows how they can be entered in three common OSes (see: unicode), so I’ll try my best to revive the correct usage again.
Also, I don’t think it is considered incorrect to use top quotation marks on a computer any longer.
Maybe he married her, instead of the other way around.
Now let’s touch on the fact that these subtitles are in Spanish.
Maybe they meant: the years of 90.
Was the solution there to just boot an older/previous kernel?
