If this is a legit question, the flag that looks a lot like the Dutch flag is in fact in this case the Luxembourg flag, which has a lighter blue at the bottom. They don't speak Dutch, they speak Lëtzebuergesch (Luxembourgs)

I know that was Luxembourgs. It’s why I said I was surprised that it wasn’t also mentioned like all the other languages of the neighbouring countries. Since The Netherlands is also one of those neighbouring countries and languages

Because dutch is not an official language of luxembourg. The others are. Except for english but that one was probably included because the person recording knew engliish anyways.

So realistically those are the 4 languages you'd probably learn in luxembourg.

Edit: also the netherlands aren't actually a naeigbouring country of luxembourg.

And Luxembourg also has a huge Portuguese community too, so realistically Portuguese is in the mix for spoken languages in Luxembourg as well. Dutch isn't, though
