Dijkstra was Dutch, not Deutsch.
- samatman 5y agoWell, yes. But I'm able to construct the German form from memory, and have found myself unable to produce a Dutch equivalent even from reference. When writing it, I imagined Meneer Djikstra rolling his eyes a bit. Which... fits.
- cycomanic 5y agoIt is actually not quite correct in German either, it should be Herr Professor Doktor not Doktor Professor.
