Onze Taal offices

Genootschap Onze Taal ('Society Our Language') is a Dutch society dedicated to the Dutch language. It was founded in 1931, initially to guard the language against what was then seen as creeping invasion of Germanisms into the language.[1]

The society publishes a journal, "Onze Taal", and a number of regularly appearing booklets on spelling, the most notable of which is the White Booklet. It also has an advisory service called the Taaladviesdienst.[2]
