      Ik denk niet dat bijen bij de boeren gaan hoeren!

      Dat is een beetje vulgair

      My English and Dutch are good enough to make a correct assumption on what it should be. My wife is also a speech pathologist, so spelling mistakes are always triple checked here. What you want it to be is: 

       

      Wist je dat bijen bij de hardst werkende boeren ter wereld horen.

       

      You shouldn’t say “behoren” because it means “belong to” and in the beginning of the phrase you’re saying “ bij de...” here “bij” means “to”. So you would be saying something like “did you know that bees are belong to the hardest working farmers?

       

      Right now it literally says “Did you know that bees go and whore with the hardest working farmers”. Which is b.t.w. a very funny mistake!

       

       

      Kind  regards!
