How do we say "how" in dutch? And when do we say: when? Who says what?
A few minutes from now, you will know how to ask questions in Dutch! And how to answer! My name is Bart de Pau.
This is "1000 most common words in Dutch". The course to learn basic Dutch vocabulary, with exercises on learndutch. org; 40 lessons in each lesson you learn 25 of the most frequently used Dutch words.
In lesson 5 we deal with interrogative words, those are words for creating questions, and their answers, such as the demonstrative pronouns. [WHO? ] [WHAT?
] Remember from the previous lesson: “leuk” = fun. [THAT] And Carnival is celebrated mainly in the Southern part of the Netherlands. [THIS] Well, you should remember, we learned that in the previous lesson.
[WHICH] [THIS] [THAT] That's not a difficult choice, isn't it? The euro is the currency in the Netherlands. Now a good question: what's the difference between "deze, dit, die" and "dat"?
Hmm. . we just saw: this can be "dit" or "deze" in Dutch.
That can be "die" or "dat". I told you already, the article ("de" or "het"), can influence other words. Well, that's what happens here.
Now it's too complicated to discuss within these basic vocabulary lessons. But in lesson 19 of my course #dutchgrammar, I explain this in detail. [WHERE?
] [HERE] [THERE] And now we can answer: [WHEN? ] [THEN] and that can be in the future and in the past, but: [THEN (PAST)] can only be in the past. [WHILE] And in the Netherlands, this is absolutely forbidden; using your phone while ("terwijl") driving.
[HOW? ] [LIKE THIS] [HOW MUCH? / HOW MANY?
] [THE FLOWER] And for Dutch people, this is an important word, because it is one of our major export products. And again, please pay attention to the plural ending [en], "bloemen". [WHY?
] [THAT'S WHY] [BECAUSE] and a word with the same meaning is: [BECAUSE] The only difference is that the word order after "want" is different than after "omdat", but again that's grammar [BUT] [EXCEPT] Everyone does the exercises on our website. . .
"behalve. . .
" well, I hope that's not you! Time for the homework. Study the words and do the exercises.
