It’s especially entertaining with a Dutch accent rather than a Flemish one, as that “g” in “wagen” is said in a very unusual way compared to pretty much all other European languages and accents.
Mind you, it’s strangely pleasant to say it that way for me as a non-native, and having picked up the local version of “God damn it” (which has a similar sounding “g”) as an expletive when I lived there, now - almost 2 decades later - it still just comes out in its own when I’m pissed at something.

Hoe bedoel je? Nederlands als een taal is compleet serieus, en er is niks raars aan 😤😤

I mean that it’s whimsical. Very fun for the ears to a non-native speaker.

Niederländer geben endlich zu, dass ihre Sprache nur ein ausgefeilter Witz ist, um Deutsche zu veralbern
