What is the Dutch 'wiel' in English?
Asked by Wiki User
"Wheel" is an English equivalent of "wiel."
The invention of the wheel is considered a giant leap for humankind. Traditionally, the wheel's inventors are thought to be the Mesopotamian peoples who settled between the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers around 7,000 years ago. But scientists are revisiting that conclusion on the basis of improved technology and additional archaeological finds.
Specifically, it now appears that the invention of the wheel also took place about the same time in the areas of the present Balkans, central Europe and the northern Caucasus. In fact, the earliest known artistic depictions of the wheel are from outside Mesopotamia. Indeed, they instead are found in connection with the Funnelbeaker culture of people living in southern Poland by 3500 B.C.E. - 3350 B.C.E.

What is the meaning of the word De Gracht?
Asked by Wiki User
"De Gracht" might be a last name (It's capitalized).
"de gracht" (as a noun) means one of three things, which are all related: "the moat", "the canal" or "the city canal"
Moat is meant when Dutch talk about the historic things around castles.
Canal is uncommon, since that is translated in Dutch as "vaart" or "kanaal." That are the (smaller-than-rivers) waterways that are not confined to one place.
The most contemporary and most used meaning in Dutch is "city-canal," a canal that lies around a city. They evolved to this from moats.
