Doing the rounds on Dutch Social Media, no clue who to credit. But as someone living in Rotterdam: it's about friggin' time we got some recognition! Even though it is in Dutch, I think it is self explanatory. (Besides the obvious Noord (North), Zuid (South), West and Oost (East) there are some typical Rotterdam names like "Koopgoot" ("buying gutter" but that sounds far more negative than in Dutch: it is an open but subterranian famous shoppingstreet) and 020 instead of Amsterdam: there's always been rivalry between these two biggest cities and the soccerteams are sworn enemies, so they may adress eachother by the area code of the landline instead of having to say the actual city name out loud (010 = Rotterdam and 020 = Amsterdam).
