I wrote the Dutch mnemonic not the actual Dutch word for multiplication etc.
The letters of that mnemonic stands for “machtsverheffen”, “vermenigvuldigen”, “delen”, “worteltrekken”, “optellen”, “aftrekken”.
Also “Antwoord” is “answer” in Dutch and Afrikaans.
Meneer Van Dale Wacht Op Antwoord (Exponents, multiplication, division, root, addition, subtraction in Dutch).
Just rolls off the toungue
Wait is Antwoord the same meaning in Afrikaans? Does the name of the band Die Antwoord literally mean The Subtraction?
