't Is omdat het letterlijk vertaald is uit het Engels:

grac·ile (grsl, -l)
adj.
1. Gracefully slender.
2. Graceful.
[Latin gracilis.]

agree  writeaway: knowing French is always handy for translating Belgian Dutch-too bad question wasn't listed under "Flemish" since for Proz that is a separate language (but not Canadian French, eh?);-) /good point! one that has to be pondered.. hmmmm

  -> The interesting question with the 'Flemish' category is whether it's a token effort in the direction of recogising national/regional differences or an inadvertent misunderstanding...
