A few days ago I was in a store, and there were three non-Dutch couples there. One Chinese, one from Poland, and one from some African country. An impression of the languages would be as follows:

"Ktching chow njow... how wa tsjang hi hao nja wheng, nje tskjang ga wohong."
"Kazarprasnitsj skrwretsjl wrstakrrtls? Eeeh... brzwarrkllitsjzsw rstrkritssjz."
"Galamelelalealle elalaa leneelae... lelelalellealalena alalelela lanwelalalenela."

I could listen for hours and not even BEGIN to make heads or tails of what they were saying.
Quick translation.
"Look dear, it's on sale. Let's get it."
Or something very similar.
