Sorry Mary, "neglectable" is not a valid word although at first glance it might seem so. I have tried several online doictionaries and also checked my Oxford and Longman's dictionaries at home in an attempt to prove myself wrong. There is no entry for neglectable, one online site suggested 'negligible' as an alternative.

I understand (I think) what Wouter is saying, I just felt that to be fair to him I should point out that 'neglectable' doesn't exist. If I tried to communicate in Dutch and got it wrong I'd appreciate being corrected.

BTW I never cease to be humbled at how well so many Europeans speak English when we can barely speak it ourselves!!
