11:08 That's accurate, in Portuguese we say *"provar"* and its meaning is (or may be) really close to: try, taste, experiment and prove. E.g. Eu provei a minha roupa nova / I've tried my new clothes. Esse sorvete é ótimo, você devia experimentá-lo / This ice-cream is great, you should try it. Precisamos provar o que acabou de acontecer / We need to prove what just happened.
Its so weird how similar dutch is to English compared to other languages. It makes me feel quite fond of the language. I am enjoying learning the language apart from the g pronunciations and getting down which words are het/de.
Appreciatee your videos are great thanks a lot. Wishing you the best I wrote down all these words and i know most of them but the clue of learning is writing and repeating
Jeesus, I'm really struggling here, because I have problems to pronounce "R" letter, but still I want to learn dutch and go to Netherlands to find a better life. Goodluck to me and dankjewel for the lesson :)
I thought that was hard (pretty much the same as French r, which took me months) until I came across Arabic ain. One of the books I have says that if you feel you are about to vomit, you are getting close!
Educated people from the big cities and news presenters usually use a French R (FR) at the beginning and middle of a word, and something that almost sounds like an American R (AR) at the end of a word. Raam (window) = R(FR)aam Proberen = Pr(FR)ober(FR)en Haar (hair / her) = Haar (AR) Deur (door) = Deur(AR) Words that consist of two words are probably the exception. For example: Waterfall = Water(AR)val Robbery = Over(AR)val Hourly wage = Uur(AR)loon Ferry = Veer(AR)boot Some people use a more pronounced R for some words, almost like a Spanish R. But that’s mostly (Dutch) people from outside of the big cities and people with a foreign background.
You can also have a dog run, so we have the same use of run as a noun. The chicken run wouldn't exactly be a henhouse, but the enclosed grassy area next to it for the chickens to exercise and find bugs in. 😎 Love your videos Stella! 💗
Very informative - and a fun listen! Thanks for all the subtleties about usage. Among other things, I'll remember that there are no highway cowboys in Holland. :)
I like the "No Highway Cowboys" phrase. It is a good way to get someone from the United States to understand the usage of diphthongs in a second language. Dit is geweldig!
Probeeren is akin to prove in English, which in turn comes from Anglo French and latin. Prove's first meaning was "to show truthfulness by experimentation".
I speak fluent English, Danish, Swedish and passable German. I understood most of the verbs and sentences right off the bat. So for me it’s going to be a matter of pronunciation and grammar, but learning Dutch will be much easier than Greenlandic which I am currently also struggling with to learn. I loved the video and the explanations. Well done.
I find that learning Dutch is forcing me to forget my (not quite passable) German. I can remember "stark" or "sterk" (for strong") but not both, or else I'll constantly be switching them by mistake. So I must force myself to forget the German (though I can still read or hear it).
At some point I realized you were speaking English with an English (specifically British) accent, not a Dutch accent. Are you also speaking Dutch with an English accent? No two Dutch videos seem to use the same pronunciation which makes it tough, though yours is one of the best. By the way, I can't pronounce an English "o" (like in "no highway cowboys") the way British or Australian people do to save my life. It's baffled me forever. I guess it's hard for us Americans.
She doesn’t have an (English) accent in Dutch at all. She does use the American R (at the end of words) which is common with news presenters and educated people from the Randstad such as Amsterdam. The most beautiful way to talk Dutch.
@@elonmisc Speaking of letters at the end of words, why does Stella pronounce the "N" at the end of several words, when the majority of Dutch speakers do not? For example she pronounces the "N" in "vinden" (8:07), in "Hij komt binnen" (10:07), and in "tenen" (10:20). Yet Dutch tools like Duolingo and Google Translate do not pronounce it, not even slightly. So DutchPod is out of step. Hearing it two different ways is causing me trouble, as half the verb forms and almost every plural ends in "N".
@@alsojuja I don’t know if it’s the majority of Dutch speakers who don’t pronounce the N at the end. I’m a native speaker and also often pronounce the ‘N’ at the end. I think both is correct. So I guess it’s not a hard rule (like you have in French for example for silent letters). I can imagine that it’s confusing. But I think it’s never wrong to pronounce the N.
@@elonmisc Maybe it's just the majority of Dutch dramas on Netflix, not exactly the gold standard of linguistics! But since Duolingo forgoes the "N" I am doing so as well. But Stella is great for learning vowel sounds I think, so I'll keep watching. I can only imagine what learners of English think when they go back and forth between hearing American and British accents. And then there's Scottish and Irish and New Yorker...
Cool video! Thanks! However I wonder why you start with "zijn" as it is probably the most difficult verb due to all its exceptions:P Granted its maybe the most usefull.. But I think many people will find it confusing and not see the structure of most Dutch verbs.
Well, according to my grammar book, and according to a website of the Taalunie, the form "jij/je wil" is *informal* and therefore accepted in everday-speech, but theoretically wrong. The correct conjugation has to be "jij/je wilt", it's apparently *not* a "big city thing". But it is in fact "hij/zij/ze/het wil" ... And, of course (as per usual) if you make a question, the form loses its t: "wil jij/je ...?"
would smbdy please explain this reffering to deutsch at 2.15 ! Is it about some sort of "gasping expressions" (like: "i say!=oh my!" and it iplies that some sort of "okijk" is "oh my!" in dutch? or there is such equivalent in deutsch? (and it sounds similar to "okijk" or smthg like this?). OR: her phrase is just literal "It's less OK in deutsch than it is in english" (meaning "such expressions are not very popular-normal in Deutschland"?) {for some reason i can`t sleep thinking about it. Smbdy HELP!}
Total confusion: hij gebruikt de auto: He is using the car: He uses the car: He used the car. Which of the three sentences suit the above Dutch sentence?
The first two sentences are correct and are in the present tense. The third sentence wouln not be "hij gebruikt de auto". It would be "hij heeft de auto gebruikt" or "hij gebruikte de auto" because it would be in the past tense.

You can pronounce the rolling "R" . I do that and that is the standard.
Educated people from the big cities and news presenters usually use a French R (FR) at the beginning and middle of a word, and something that almost sounds like an American R (AR) at the end of a word.
Raam (window) = R(FR)aam
Proberen = Pr(FR)ober(FR)en
Haar (hair / her) = Haar (AR)
Deur (door) = Deur(AR)
Words that consist of two words are probably the exception. For example:

Some people use a more pronounced R for some words, almost like a Spanish R. But that’s mostly (Dutch) people from outside of the big cities and people with a foreign background.
I really enjoy learning Dutch. It's a lot easier for me because I grew up with Afrikaans speaking friends. This is really exciting!!! 🗣️🤩🤩😎

that girl is the most helpful one in the whole chanel
Stella should be in the app as well. I miss her
I like how she effortlessly changes between being an empathetic teacher and putting on her RBF 😂

Thank you Stella
Thanks proberen...in english we got the verb to probe ...kind of like trying(ish).dank je wel
This is really helpful. Thank you!
yes
I am learning Nederlands (Vlaams) and I find this very helpful.

In Shakespeare’s day (ca. 1600), it was still:
I will, thou wilt, he willeth / I have, thou hast, he hath.
