retoor9591dIn Dutch it's boekhouding :) Interesting, since keeping would translate to houden. No idea where houdING comes from or what the rules are regarding that.
I did some research and there are quite some words derived from Dutch. The most important one for us is `koekje` what means `cookie`. -

Don't forget bookkeeping is mainly needed so that the government doesn't break your knees for money they consider they are owed

"Bookkeeping" is the most Dutch looking English word ever!
