Summary
The same traveller who filed a complaint against me at the end of 2024 claims that I told him only "Good journey" in February 2026. A complaint filed against a train controller because he said "hello" when he was near Vilvorde "It's so Belgian!" "For years I have been saying "Goeiedag Bonjour" to Charleroi, Namur, Oostende or Mechelen. And since Belgium and its three languages are aware of strict laws concerning the use of the latter, our country knows this kind of case.
Furthermore, While the "Goeiedag/Hello" pronounced by the attendants on the train seems normal for a large part of the population, this is clearly not the case for everyone.
