    As a native English speaker with some, albeit limited, German and an interest in old English and the Scandinavian languages, Nederlands has always fascinated me. It seems that either I get the gist of what people are saying to me, or feel like I really should have. I genuinely enjoy the way it sounds.
    At first, it's the guttural consonants that draw your attention, but those are pretty easy and can even sort of serve as a marker in a word or sentence to keep you from losing your way. What I find difficult to reproduce are the vowel sounds. Some of them seem to hover tantalizingly just out of reach...langzamer alstublieft spreken

      @Danzille Strauss...I totally agree Danzille.I'm English and more or less understood each sentence just by having learnt German fuhr ein jahre ins schül (over 45 years ago). I just love all languages and wish that I were multi-lingual in many.The sad thing is that we are not given many language options in school in England (or at least we weren't in my day),therefore many English people become lazy,I think and just expect to not need to try when abroad. Once,when I was on holiday,I thought I heard a lady in my hotel speaking in German and therefore spoke to her in German for the whole week.We managed to communicate pretty well but it wasn't until leaving when she overheard me speaking to my partner that she realised that I wasn't German and I realised that neither was she.She was in fact from South Africa! We both had such a laugh when we realised our mistake.

      The reading was practiced more than the speaking or writing and those are things I defineately learned on my own.

      but I think that is easier to learn german english and french italian and portuguese than this european language besides that is not so useful to know it anyway they know to speak english german or french there would not any problem for communicate with the people from netherlands because I,ve already known to speak very well the english german french and italian language I think that with those european languages that I know is absolutely and definitely enough for me as I see but anyway I respect if other people want to learn it

    In 1998 world cup I was 16 yrs old and fell in love with the Dutch National Team to a point that, though I'm brazilian, I almost rooted for them against Brazil in semi-finals. That was an absolutely different approach on the way the sport was played (today I know it was not exactly new), and I ended up as a brazilian teen willing to learn dutch, which is an almost alien language for us even today. This video have reviving those memories.

    I spent 1.5 weeks in Amsterdam, using public transportation, before the end of my trip I swear I was basically able to read it, and understand 1/3rd of what the locals were saying 😂. Dutch has to be the closest language to Americans/English speakers. Also by the end of my trip.
    Another weed thing about it was I was so adjusted to hearing Dutch and other foreign languages that when I heard a couple who were Americans from NY staying at my hostel speaking in American accents I looked at them confused, it took me about 10 seconds to figure out they were actually speaking “American” English. It sounded super weird, yes most people in Europe speak English but not hearing an American accent for awhile sounds super foreign and strange.

    • @Kleo3392
      @Kleo3392 5 ปีที่แล้ว +33

      Yassmin Mahmoud “Ik hou van het” is just grammatically incorrect. In Dutch, when a preposition introduces a neutral third person pronoun, the prepositional phrase is turned into a pronominal adverb, which is the adverb “er” or “daar”, depending on whether the pronoun is weak or strong, respectively, or “hier” if the pronoun refers to an object near the speaker, put together with the preposition itself, so “van het” becomes “ervan”, and “van dat” becomes “daarvan”, and “van dit”, becomes “hiervan”. If there are other adverbs in the sentence, however, the pronominal adverb is separated and the adverb goes in between, so “Ik hou er niet van.”

    Thank you for this video.. Been seeing quite a few videos that have assisted my Dutch learning, I must say.
    I must say that I am quite confused why so many people dislike the Dutch language. In my opinion, in the right voice and pronunciation, Dutch is the most beautiful language, and I know it's different, but hey, that's what I love about it, actually... I've been taking lessons for a few months now, I believe, and yes, I realize that some of the sounds in the language are very guttural, but somehow, the language is very charming to me/my ears, and I'm starting to somewhat get the hang of it, thanks to many other instructional and informative videos. :3
    I say, It makes me sad whenever people insult any languages at all, because every language is beautiful in their own ways. I know people have their opinions however... Nonetheless, I digress... I don't want to go on and on, but yeah, hopefully you all understand what I am trying to say. No offense meant to anyone.

      good point, totally agree. I don't like it when people say a language is ugly.

      German speakers that learn English as adults are usually very difficult to understand, especially those that never learned how to do the English language accent. They have the guttural "Dr. Strangelove" thing going on, lots of Vs for Ws and slurred phrases that shouldn't be slurred. Dutch who learn to speak English as adults are perfectly comprehensible, and even musical sounding.

    Dutch is _way_ easier to learn than Spanish for me. Except for geen/niet. The syntax and words are very close. And you can guess pretty well in Duolingo. Vrouw=frau=woman, knew that. Jongen=Young'un in southern english=boy. I'm sure it will get more difficult as I go on, but so far, Dutch is easy peasy. Way ahead after 3 weeks and feel better about learning dutch than I feel after studying spanish for almost 40 years and can barely converse.

      I'm encountering the same problem differentiating geen and Niet especially using it in a statement...they practically have the same meaning but not that similar I guess...did you figure it out eventually?
