The diminutive of 'kwestie' is 'kwestietje' and a '?' is called 'vraagteken' (diminutive: 'vraagtekentje'). vragen = to ask. kwestie = issue/matter.

A good article about 'verzuiling' is this one at Wikipedia called Pillarisation.

Verzuiling installment
- interesting pillars
That way of organizing your society has served you well, I believe, and as development moves forward and barriers are broken down, I suppose the pillars start to crumble a bit as also the Wiki suggests. How do you look at it?

The system is not totally foreign to us. Especially the Labor Movement – trade unions – and the Social Democratic party has been one strong pillar which almost ruled the country behind the scene. One thing which is not nearly as dominant in our one tall and a number of smaller ones is religion. We do have Catholic schools (not many), Rudolf Steiner schools, free schools (probably based on a wing of protestantism), and now muslim schools as well. Also a number of ’private schools’ with no ideology except for giving the children more attention have sprung up.

Edging in on the comprehensive Undutchables post installment
- a very small edging in ....
I just ordered the one copy we have in Denmark - at the Royal Library.
It is the 3rd edition from 1995.
I hope you haven't changed too much in the meantime ...

The toilet-seat-installment and why Dutch people have glasses in their toilets.

How do we call a toilet-seat in Dutch? It is a 'wc-bril', where 'wc' stands for water closet. That's English: water closet! In Dutch we say something like: waysay. (Not oo-way-say, just way-say.) And the seat? We call it the 'bril'. But a 'bril' is something that you wear on your nose to see better: glasses. So if you ever meet a Dutchman talking about toilet-glasses, now you know why something went awry in translation.
That's right, a 'wc-bril' is a toilet seat.

"What made you think of that?" you ask. That is quite simple. I was looking for "The Undutchables" at Bol.com and found it here. At the same time I saw two other books that I don't know, standing out and being recommended: "Stuff Dutch people like" and "Stuff Dutch people say". On the cover of the latter one, a jongetje (little boy) says "My toilet glasses broke" and I wondered "What the huh is he saying?"
So there I was, sitting and thinking about 'glazen' (plural of 'glas') (e.g. a glass of champagne) and what it all meant. What did the little boy mean by toilet glasses? But there was no deeper meaning. Suddenly the word 'bril' — that's singular (briller in Danish) — sprang to mind. Of course, it's a 'wc-bril'! Then I sought for a nice U-buis-video ('U-buis'? Oh, you mean YouTube!) and came over that little instruction video how to throw glasses into a toilet and then laugh out loud (lol).
(Did you know that the Dutch word 'lol' means fun/laugh/lark? Long before everybody was laughing out loud (LOL) on bulletin boards (and on USENET and later on on the internet) we already had 'lol'.)
So, het jongetje (the little boy) somehow spoke about 'een gebroken wc-bril' (broken toilet glasses).

I wonder, since Danish hardly pronounce the 'r', how do say 'brrrrr' when it's cold outside, klein meermin?
