I like that the opposite of "grootouders" is "kleinkinderen". In most other languages it is "grandchildren", but if you think about it, Dutch actually gets it right.
I’m learning Swedish and I think their system is the best! You have farfar (dad’s dad), farmor (dad’s mom), mormor (mom’s mom) and morfar (mom’s dad) child is barn and grandchildren is barnbarn (child’s child) Every exact 😂
@@charlottevanlangevelde1114 it’s the same in norwegian😄
The British lady in the orange scarfs pronounces Dutch perfectly 👍
She’s even named Dineke
True, it really sounds perfectly!
ikr
She sounds so sweet and reminds me of my grandmother.
Yep sounds absolutely perfect
Until the dutch speaker said 'puin', I could not figure out for the life of me, that those two talking about words for 'mess' were trying to say 'puinhoop'
Yeah that section went on too long. Neither funny or helpful to someone who might actually want yo know what they were attempting to say
It's what everybody will recognize who tries to learn a new language by immersion instead of through school. At school we get presented with a base vocabulary, idiom and grammar and the "method" of the moment makes sure the next thing builds on the previous. In the streets, social life, you get surprised all the time while you don't have the "word image" to go with what you heard (the visual of spelling).
We understand each other in spoken language because we know what is coming and if you have no clue then it is very hard to figure out words and remember them - as illustrated in the video.
I hope the two people in these bits did not feel insulted - it was funny to me for a couple attempts.
Ik kan het woord “puinhoop” nooit meer normaal gebruiken, zonder aan dit filmpje te denken 😂👌
Hahaha inderdaad!
Ik merkte helemaal niet eens dat dat was wat zij probeerden te zeggen
Ik dacht eerst dat ze voor rotzooi gingen🤣 maar het werd puinhoop
Dat is waar
Pauwhimloop xD
0:10 "the first bad word I learned in Dutch contained keuken" I think we all know the sentence he is revering to.
KANKER
Yeah and that chick next to him made it awkward as fuck
Most men "revere" (eerbiedigen) the act of the word not said.
Neuken in de keuken
Ik word altijd zo blij van deze studenten. Heerlijk!
Mijn droom is om vandaag 25 subs te halen kan iemand helpen🙏🏻🙏🏻

For all four years of high school I worked for a Dutch guy who had "come the boat over" to the USA in the 1950s. He had a small landscaping company and hired many kids like me from local Dutch descendants. He constantly called us "jonge". Like many immigrants, he combined English with his native tongue in a form of Dunglish. He had a thick brogue, though he seemed to be able to turn it on and off at will. When a customer didn't understand what he was saying, I would translate. I learned to work hard and treat people with respect. While "jonge" is indeed a funny sounding word, for me I also think of it as a term of endearment. It was much better to be called that than being called a "klootzak". 🙂
I love the term Dunglish. Geweldig 😂
As a Dutch person I laughed so hard when they started saying "tsjonge jonge jonge"
Ik ook lol
Ik niet
Me to (ik ook)😅 sjoengeejoengee gonge
Oh boyohboyohboyohboy
5:00 basisschool lerares
Die vrouw uit de UK spreekt echt fantastisch Nederland. Wat jammer was perfect uitgesproken.
We like uitbuiken as well. Especially when my friends try to explain it to my wife. They always act like a pregnant woman that site down 😂
You have to unbuckle your belt while saying this. For the extra effect.
@@hunchbackaudio yeah and they happy to do. because they really can eat like hungry horses ;) if not then they do it more like Felix the cat laughing effect. still silly but funny!
I like the word "schat" because it is a sweet name for your loved one (or ones depending on how you use it) while also being the dutch word for treasure. So you are basically calling your loved one a treasure without sounding too cringy (to me at least)
4:49 "drommels drommels drommels" is even better!👌
🤣They made a puinhoop of the word puinhoop!
Just kidding! Well done guys!!
Als je Nederlands of Belgisch bent is dit echt legendarisch🤣
Ooh wees maar zeker😂😂😂👏🏻btw ben Belg
One of my favourite words is 'herinnering'. It's quite beautiful when you realise it literally means 're-innering'
Which do you think is funnier, "re-internalization" or "re-member-ing"?
my favorite words are "magnetron" and "risico". 1st one sounds like a super hero, the 2nd one just sounds cute =)
Thank you for turning my 'magnetron' into a Marvel character, I'm dying here using it from now on😅😂
Sounds like a frickin transformer
*''Magnetron''* means microwave 😂
*''Risico''* means risk
Ik now imagine a guy calling for his dog "RISICOOOO"
@@merlinkater7756 not a bad name for a dog, honestly
When i first came to the netherlands i really laughed so loudly everytime people said Duif xD
and you look at a pigeon they are like one of the dryest animals ever xD roo roo i am duif hahaha
I agree with the british man i do also love how dutch put ''je'' after certain words to amke them smaller and cuter like hondje katje but also when you say darling in dutch wich is lieverd but you can also say liefje wich is small sweetheart if i'm correct i think that is very cute ^^
You can make cute words out of a lot of naughty or even nasty words by just putting "je" behind it. Ofcourse pronouncation and used in the right context is a must here.
3:17 she actually sounds dutch! Hahaha
Absolutely love these episodes! I've watched them all! Was excited to see a new one! Thanks!
Om eerlijk te zijn, onze variant van "Aardappel" stamt hoogst waarschijnlijk af van het Franse: "Pommes du Terre" was ook weer letterlijk appel van de aarde betekent.
Meanwhile PO TA TOE, het ziet niet uit als een teen.
appel is ook veel ruimer en betekent voornamelijk rond bolletje... appeltjes van je ogen en inderdaad sinaasappel, wat overigens komt van china's appel... In de arabische wereld noemen ze het een portugal appel - omdat die ze importeerden...
Um ehrlich zu sein, unsere Variante von "Erdapfel" stammt höchst wahrscheinlich ab vom Französichen "Pommes du Terre" was auch wieder wortwörtlich Apfel Von der Erde bedeutet.
@@trunki006 Leuk zo die Duitse taal, koste mij wat moeite maar je zei eigenlijk hetzelfde als @Darkdayzz. Duits lijkt zo erg op Nederlands. Kan er veel van verstaan maar heb geen les gehad.
Lekker! can be used in different ways, one time had a rough landing at schiphol and both dutch women next to me said that, it was their tone as well that made me laugh.
The most likely said “lekker dan”
it's similar to nice. Sarcasm works well on that as well.
The hardest thing about Dutch is that the words can be used in so many different ways, like pancake for example. Edible, but also a doofus. Egg white like the protein, but also the egg white. Some words can be used in like 20 different contexts.
Vogelverschrikker would be a very odd word I suppose - literally bird-scarer. Scarecrow... Angstschreeuw... Scream of terror.
Koppensneller; headhunter.
kunstje, trick...
Kankerlijer... Someone suffering from cancer - mostly meant as an insult, rarely literally. This is also pretty unique in Dutch. Most other languages use genitalia as insults. We wish eachother a merry disease... And combinations are popular...
Pestpokkepleurislijder...
hufter xD
@@corbeau-_- Dutch people say "KUT" often which is the female genital
Kind of a weird one but my favourite word so far is waarschijnlijk, it just sounds gnarly
Ooh gnarly is a great English word!
in german its: wahrscheinlich
I could watch these for hours.
Hallo ik ben al mijn hele leven Nederlands en ik kwam dit kanaal nu pas tegen. Het is erg handig!😌
Hello I am Dutch my whole life long and I just came across this channel. Its really usefull! 😌
I love videos like this! Their favorite words or funny words! Though I like most videos like this! Thanks for the upload!
As a Dutchie super lovely too see all these people speaking Dutch, I especialy like Charles in this one.
I like the sound of "paraplu" for some reason, but I don't know why lol
You know it's French, literally meaning: against the rain? 😁
@@nomennescio7457 Just like "parasol" and "parachute", meaning "against the sun" and "against the fall/falling" respectively.
@@nomennescio7457 French? I even didn't realise that, interesting. Thanks for telling me about that.
Erg leuk weer, zo als altijd. Zo ongelooflijk geinig (da's pas een woord voor je studenten om zich over te verwonderen ...) om je eigen taal en cultuur op de korrel genomen te horen en zien worden! Ik heb mijn Italiaans-Venezolaanse nieuwe manager jouw kanaal van harte aangeraden; hij is al vier jaar hier, doet zijn stinkende best en ik denk dat hij hier veel plezier en kennis aan kan ontlenen.
That's a funny one too, "stinkende best" - always makes me wonder if it is a way to say it is "not good enough"
@@jpdj2715Actually you're more or less right there: it IS a way of saying that you're doing your utmost best, but ... no guarantees!
Lekker :D that's my fav word.
My favourite word is 'Kapot', is funny to say when you just broke something, the next thing to say is: Oh, is kapot! Like it exploded or something.
My second one is 'makkelijk', the tongue has to moves weird to pronounce it 🤣
"Fanny"? 😸 or "funny"?
@@paolagrando5079 funny * 😋
Whenever something, no matter what it is, falls on the ground. Me and my friends just yell: 'JA! KAPOT!' indicating it is completely broken beyond repair when it is clearly not. It makes no sense, but it always cracks me up.
@@hotcarrots3192 We usually say "ja, leg daar maar neer." (Yea, just put it down over there.)
@@qwertyuiopzxcfgh I was about to say that.
We had a melodramatic (for fun) friend that would throw himself on the on the couch and yell; 'Yes yes, destroy it all, it does not matter!' whenever you dropped a small cartboard box. Only every once in a while ofcourse, for comedic effect.
I went through a phase of adding; 'Oh no...nów the world is going to end.' after something dropped, with a serious face, to add that bit of drama onto the accident.
And one of the classics is my dad asking; 'Doet-ie het nog?' (does it/he still do it?) right after it fell. And I mean, ríght after it falls, before you can pick it up. He (and now I as well) use the same phrase for people, when they're not around.
So my mom will say; 'I visited my old group yesterday, the one that was taught by mister Wit' and my dad would ask; 'Ah, mister Wit, doetie het nog?' (does it/he still do it?) and my mom would answer; 'Yeah, he was very animated and happy' or 'No, no, he died a few years ago, sadly.'
"It" in this case is then...what you're supposed to do. Does it still do what it was doing before...does it continue, or has it stopped.
Hahahah ik die altijd al Nederlands spreekt 🤣🤣🤣🤣 het is echt grappig om mensen die eigenlijk niet nederlands zijn Nederlands zien te spreken!
Deze video is legendarisch 😂
Dit doet heel zeer om hier naar te kijken
ik vind al sinds dat ik het word ken al een grappig woord combinatie: "droef toeter" vooral als je het in een zin stopt: "wat een gekke droef toeter"
Ik zie dan iemand voor me, met een grote muts op, met een bolletje eraan, een krans om zijn nek, allemaal versieringen, die dan apetrots uit het raam hangt en luid met een versierde toeter aankondigt; 'Ik ben een droeftoeter, ik heb met allerlei dingen problemen!' en dan luid begint te toeteren en zwaaien.
Mij favoriet part is when the man go's like potato! Het is gewoon te perfect
I lived watching a video about people who try to say Dutch words, its always funny and that makes me feel lucky that I can speak this language
Geniaal
Dit is echt hilarisch 🤣
Mijn favo worden zijn appeltaart, Ranboo en konijnen.
Jan Roos heeft hele geschiedenis ...... he is the BHAD BHOY off The Nederlands
De wat jammer was echt goed Nederlands uitgesproken
Turns out I learned my fave Dutch word on this very channel: "scheepbeschuitjes". 😁
@Danny van luijk Actually it is, but it's not commonly eaten anymore so the word also kinda disappeared. You might find scheepsbeschuiten at the bakery in a traditional fishersvillage though.
@@xenzgoul8319 Still my fave. :P
Scheepsbeschuitjes. Ship's rusks lol, I won't eat them though.
The older people are way more entertaining in this one.
We don't have a word for protein ..... proteïne beunhaas.
Dit doet me denken aan een uitspraak van George W Busch: "its a shame the French don't have a word for entrepreneur".
Roddelpraat..... Jan Roos en Dennis Schouten
Dit is wel redelijk grappig
Dit is zooooo leuk
dit is te gek en grappig echt heel leuk
dit is echt zo grappig om naar te kijken
Anthony (USA) heeft dit keer een erg mooie sweater aan! Leuk!
Die ene met wat jammer was echt heel goed
Dit is gewoon leuk
Geslachtsgemeenschap of Bagagedrager
Winkel and winkelmunten are funny to me. Because of the words “wink” and “tinkle” in English.
Uitvaart sounds funny to an English speaker, even more so because of the contrast with the sad meaning
Every time I'm in Germany, I have to smile when I see the "Ausfahrt"-signs (highway exit), because I read the word as "uitvaart" in Dutch and "out-fart" in English, and my mind then connects those two.
@@qwertyuiopzxcfgh same here 😅
Hoopte ergens het woord: "Zakje" te horen hier 🤣
Haha dit is echt grappig
this is the first day to visit this channel.. and from now on... i open it here everyday... so that a little by little i can get want i want ..i am a filipino woman.. but i am.interested ducth lnguage..i want to learn how to speak the words correctly
2:42 it's the same for me with pineapple.
grappig om te zien wat mensen vreemd of grappig vinden aan de nerderlandse taal!
"Puin" in puinhoop is more akin to debris i'd say. To me it sounds like someone demolished a building and left a pile of debris.
Hilarious!
In Dutch: hilarisch
I have so many favourite words I love the dutch language ❤️
Heerlijk... : )
HIERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
And then the dog is like "lol I don't speak human :D" and ignores his owner haha
Uitwaaien heeft geheel niet met een big meal te maken. Maar met willen uitwaaien. ;-)
3:16 omg so good im dutch!
I need to laugh so hard bc I’m dutch and then I hear how they pronounce 😂😂
Goedkoop

Bart, het is " hilarisch. Dus met een s.

hi i want to learn dutch pronounciation... i watch your vedio and i am unterested. BUT ITS VERY DIFFICULT.. to speak the words. this is my first time to reach this channel..
Bagagedrager & snellbinder.
Zoentjes van Ralda
More descriptions/ translations of the words needed (written) I might have found it more helpful that way
Just the word potato in dutch “aardappel” i almost never use this word it is always like: patat😂😂😂😂
Kruk is my fav
I actually didn't really realise that we use quite a few words that aren't really excisting but we just put them in our language. Like "makkie" (piece of cake) it's derivative from makkelijk which means easy. We just shorten some words for no reason
I love the word alstublieft
Cool, now say Arbeidsongeschiktheidsverzekering
2:08 damn those rhymes are sick
Dit deed pijn, maar was wel grappig
Die ene persoon die over aardappels praatte heeft nog nooit een ander taal gehoord
I'm almost sure that half of the people watching this are curious Dutch people 😂
Mine is Pindakaas, so fun to say, and the translation is funny, even tho i know why its called that, because of regulations they cant name it butter lol
Im Dutch and I didn’t even know there is a rule for not using “pindaboter” 😂
Second was wrong it was uitbuiken,🤣🤣
Ja hoor
puihimloop, pauwhimkop.... and still I had no idea... Thought they were quite a way off from 'troep'.
Rampetampen !
Sowieso
Bitterballen
Schoonmoeder
Fantastisch
Hottentottententententoonstelling
Zijn mijn favoriete woorden.
StinkKaaskop!!!!!😂😂😂
My fav Dutch word is “kakkerlak” which means “cockroach”, it sounds so funny, especially in plural - “kakkerlakken”
strawberry plus apple : potato hahahha aardbei + appel
Dit is zo grappig want ze weten niet hoe ze het uitspreken
I love the word bromfiets. It sounds like what it is: "Brom brom brom fiiiets". Here I am.
Mijn broer vindt dat “makkie” niet piece of cake is maar easy😹
..try and explain appeltje eitje gl lol
As a person that speaks Dutch , idk why but "stoel" is my favorite word lol ( stoel= chair)
In duits its stuhl
