  1. Uitgang is the Dutch word for exit.  Flemish is not a written language.

    The official languages of Belgium are Dutch (spoken mainly in the north - Flanders or Vlanderen or Vlaams), French (spoken mainly in the south - Wallonia or Wallonie, and German spoken in a small German enclave along the Belgian-German border.  Flemish is spoken in Flanders; but, as I said, it is not a written language.  There is, however, Flemish-language TV in Belgium.  Subtitles are in standard Dutch.


  2. The Dutch (Flemish) word for "exit" is "uitgang".

    The French (Walloon) word would be "sortie".

  3. All answers are correct.

    If you ever happen to be in the German speaking part of the country (East Belgium towards Germany), there the EXIT is AUSGANG (but you'll rarely discover it, as here we all use the universal EXIT...)

  4. The exit in Flemish: de uitgang
