• Added the definite article "het" to all Dutch language name translations as is customary
• Updated some Dutch language strings + changed from informal/casual ('je') to formal ('u/uw').

Since WordPress 4.3:
nl_NL is supposed to be informal Dutch.
nl_NL_formal is formal Dutch.

Therefore the changes you made should be placed in nl_NL_formal

Also, why have you placed articles before every language?

Hi,

• I don't see any nl_NL_formal.po file in the repo. Can you point me to it?
• I've placed the articles before the languages for proper translation because that's simply Dutch grammar. For example. "In English" translates to Dutch as "In het Engels" and not as "In Engels".

WordPress has nl_NL_formal: https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/nl/formal/wp . Maybe it should be added to qTranslate X.

Wouldn't the translation "Sorry, dit bericht is alleen beschikbaar in het %LANG:, : en %.)" display "Sorry, dit bericht is alleen beschikbaar in het het Engels." in your case? (double article)

@sidiabale @soft79 it's been a very long time (2016...) but I merged this very old Pull Request: qTranslate-Team/qtranslate-x#416 in qTranslate-XT which is the continuation of qTranslate-X.

Added nl_NL_formal as suggested with minor changes for the punctuation and the "het" article in the options for the missing language message (those are not in the PO files).
