Blog – de Buedemle\u00ebr<\/h1>\n

de Buedemle\u00ebr is committed to the promotion of Luxembourgish.<\/h1>\n

Did you know that in the Grand Duchy nearly 70% of all companies are family-owned?<\/h2>\n

According to a study conducted by PwC Luxembourg<\/a> in 2007, family businesses like ours<\/strong> are characterized by a management model that is more stable, more cautious and more oriented towards the long term and the development of human and social relations than other companies. The study also states that they are more involved <\/strong>than other companies in the continuous training <\/strong>of their staff.<\/p>\n

For us, lifelong learning <\/strong>takes several forms. One of them is that we ask our team members to take Luxembourgish courses, if they have not had the opportunity to learn the language before.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”564″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1655811650536{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}” el_class=”post-smaller-img”][vc_column_text el_class=”al-center”]We use fun teaching materials that allow for quick learning<\/small>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Why do we do this? The reason is very simple. A large majority of our clients are residents of the Grand Duchy <\/strong>and a good part of them speak Luxembourgish. That’s why we believe that allowing non-Luxembourgish members of our team to have a good conversational level in Luxembourgish is a mark of respect towards our clients and partners, but also an opportunity for them to discover our culture and to improve the relationship they have with the rest of our staff.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”567″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1655811828106{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text el_class=”al-center”]The courses take place in our premises<\/small>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”561″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1655811840972{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text el_class=”al-center”]The teaching is given by one of our collaborators<\/small>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]However, we are also a multilingual company, since in addition to Luxembourgish and the other two official languages, Italian, Portuguese and English are among the languages in which we can serve our clients.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Our identity in the face of the spelling reform<\/h2>\n

Our Luxembourgish clients sometimes make a remark about our company name. Indeed, our company was created before the spelling reform of Luxembourgish in 1999, so we chose to keep the old spelling. This is why we still call ourselves “de Buedemle\u00ebr” and not “de Buedemlee\u00ebr”.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”555″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1655811919330{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}” el_class=”post-smaller-img”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Confusions to be avoided<\/h2>\n

There have also been many remarks referring to “de Bommelee\u00ebr” (EN: bomb planter), which was in the news in the 80s. But don’t worry! As the satirical magazine Feierkrop already pointed out in 2016, our company “de Buedemle\u00ebr”, that literally means \u201cthe floor layer\u201d, has nothing to do with the “Bommelee\u00ebr” affair, except for the phonetic similarity.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”552″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1655811955868{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}” el_class=”post-smaller-img”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title=”Contact us” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.d-b.lu%2Fen%2Fcontact|target:_blank|rel:nofollow” el_class=”cta-btn”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
