I mean tho, dutch is pretty silly outside of this, e.g. “De Man is Dood”

Oh absolutely. Our language is absurd even before you get into the mess of grammar and German-style glued up words.

stop trying to speak when you're drunk, germans

It's just: "De man is dood". We don't capitalise nouns, only proper nouns like names and places (same as in English). Germans do, but that language is even weirder than ours. 😋
