Moi, Tom. Some summers ago I travelled around The Netherlands and out of the blue I heard and saw the words "straat" and "dank" in the streets. That drove me crazy and I realized this language is so similar to English and German. That's amazing to be honest for those who love languages like myself. Then I just saw these similarities on internet and now I'm here just to chill out and ask myself If still have time to learn one more language. Carry on with your amazing videos and teach us more about your northern culture. Moi!
Sorry I seriously just want to hang a pic of you on my wall and speak broken Dutch to it until I have to go out and get milk or something. I moved to the Netherlands and am really trying to learn. This was really really useful, Thank you!
Very interesting and clear introduction of the Dutch language, thank you very much 😉! And with this incidental insertion of Gronings, cute! Also I am fan of the 'we are simple people' 👍😉
The word fan only reflects my supporters - I am the only Idol / Boss / Master / Leader / Mistress / Lady / Princess / Queen / God / Star(s) / Goddess etc and other big terms, and the word fan cannot be misused by others and must be edited out!
So awesome! Thanks a lot! Dank je wel. I've been doing Duo for vijf maanden and have reached the 40s level. Ik lees ook elke dag nederlands nieuws, and stream Dutch language shows. Daar ik ben er eindelijk achter gekomen watching videos on UA-cam to hear day to day language will be very helpful as well. Vooral je videos zijn leuk!
THIS IS SUCH A GOOD VIDEO! AND I never knew Groningens had its own dialect! I wanna learn it now. A recommendation: Make the texts very big when they are on screen. Thank you again! Greetings from Boston :)
Graag gedaan! I'll try to make a video about that, but the truth is that I'm also not entirely sure what the rules behind 'de' and 'het' are. As far as I know, de used to be for male and feminine nouns, and het for neuter nounds. However, we don't really learn about genders in school anymore, so it's just a matter of learning it word-by-word.
Dankjewel, mate! So I have to learn it word-by-word from now on then. And it would be nice that you can teach us some Dutch slangs such as hottentottententententoonstelling,... xD
Thanks for your video. I noticed that people are saying”je” instead of “de” in goedemiddag. I thought it was something wrong with my ear or a Flemish dialect. 😂 Now I understand it.
@@kanareczka3612 No, they are not. In the country of the Netherlands, there are twelve regions. Noord Holland and Zuid Holland being two of those regions, meaning they are regions within the country of the Netherlands.
Its good that you repeat those sentences slower, its really helpful, thanks. id definitelly like to learn some gronings aswell, id love to see some videos about it
Native English speaker living in Pennsylvania. Attempting to learn Some Dutch, as there are many Amish people around here...Hoping to understand a bit of what they are saying or try to have a conversation with them, if possible.
@@mariadebake5483 yes, but no one “teaches” Pennsylvania Dutch unless you are Amish or Mennonite. There is enough in common that I might be able to understand them. If not, Ill just go to the Netherlands! Lol
@@neilcarter77 But that doesn't mean that there are no differences! Related yes, but not the same. With the Pennsylvania dutch, you will have more results if you use german
Goede video! So happy to see a new channel teaching Dutch! Could you please make some videos about the different types of Er someday? That would be really helpful! Dankjewel en tot ziens! :)
Celestial Shipper Hey, I'm so glad you're enjoying it. What do you mean with different types of Er? Do you have an example? I'd love to help you out with this.
TomCatchesUp I think uses of er was a better way to say it rather than types of er haha Because I know er is used not only as "there", but the other uses are kind of confusing sometimes
Celestial Shipper aaah I think I get it. Like the word 'er' by itself and in which cases it can be used: 'We zijn er' or 'Er was eens een prinses' etc.Is that what you mean?
Coming to Nederlands soon... At 36, -... First time dedicating myself to hearing some/ learning some Dutch... To me this is usuful And very comprehensively and neatly done! Thanks :)
Voornaamwoordelijk bijwoorden zijn heel moelijk. Kun je me helpen met hun? Did I say it right? Please forgive any mistakes I've been studying Dutch for less thana year and I'm Italian so it's quite complicated for me to approach a "Germanic" language :)
Ground Control voor majoor Tom, je circuit is dood, er is iets mis. Hoor je me, majoor Tom? Did I get the translation of this classic Bowie song correct Tom? If I have it is thanks to you and your language and teaching skills!
Waar kom je uit is a bit weird, because its meaning isn't very literal. It means 'where do you end up?' Waar kom je vandaan (don't forget the 'n') means 'where are you from?'.
Did you say that the Netherlands and Holland are not the same thing? If I'm wrong then I'm sorry XD I've been watching Dutch movies and wow, never knew how similar the language is to English :O there are some sentences where I didn't need a translation
You're right, that's exactly what I said :) The first is the country, the second a set of provinces in the west. Yeah Dutch is really interesting I think, the more I learn about languages surrounding it, the more I appreciate it. There's heaps of German, French, English, and Scandinavian to be found in Dutch. And like you say, some stuff is straight up mutually intelligible.
Für mich als Deutsche scheint mir niederländisch nicht so schwer zu sein, manches kann ich beim lesen verstehen, obwohl ich die Sprache nicht gelernt habe
I know this reply is super late - but Babble is technically right. You can use 'dag' as a greeting, though I personally don't. I'm not sure if it's a dialect thing, or if it's just old fashioned, but it sounds a bit weird and dry to me.
Tsjetsjenië en Rusland zijn niet hetzelfde ding 😌 alot of ppl think they’re both the same thing but they’re 100% different even the langs and cultures are completely different xD
sabbagh, "Dutch" is the English word for "Nederlands". Don't confuse it with "Deutsch", which is the German word for German, or "Duits", which is the Dutch word for German. (And the German word for Dutch is "holländisch" or "niederländisch".)
You're the teacher I've always secretly wanted😅😂
The colour coded words in order for each phrase is such a fantastic touch. Great video
Thank for teaching Netherlands language. im from Philippines.
Thank you! This was helpful
This is the most adorable video I have ever seen
LITERALLY I LOVE IT SO MUCH
Actually I've applied for a dutch speaking university in Belgium, thats why I visited your channel, I'm from Pakistan
just starting taking up dutch lessons on my own, and I came across your videos, I find them really helpful, Dank!!
The words ris and era and number 6 cannot be in someone’s name, and must be be changed / edited out!
Hello thank you for helping out
Dank je wel

hi, Filipina here. love this vid 💗
Dankje wel voor de les, Tom! I can't wait for the confusing "het" or "de" lesson! xD Minds would be blown away....

Bro this is very useful, I just started learning this Language and you help me alot🙌🏻
This is very helpful. Thank you!
Hello, which site do you recommend to look up the pronunciation of the words?
Nice job,Tom!!!how can I distinguish the"j"from the"g"or the "h"
Thanks for your video. I noticed that people are saying”je” instead of “de” in goedemiddag. I thought it was something wrong with my ear or a Flemish dialect. 😂 Now I understand it.
Watching from Hongkong I'm new learning and hope I can get a certificate as one of my requirement to go Netherlands.
I already speak Afrikaans Flawlessly and these sentences, you can figure what they're saying really easily...
Really excited! Gedankt
Well done! Thank you.
"Netherlands and Holland are not the same thing" :p

They don't speak dutch there you know!
@@mariadebake5483 yes, but no one “teaches” Pennsylvania Dutch unless you are Amish or Mennonite. There is enough in common that I might be able to understand them. If not, Ill just go to the Netherlands! Lol
@@neilcarter77 But they really don't speak anything similar to dutch! They are descendants from Germans, so their language is derived from German!
@@mariadebake5483 English, Dutch and German are all related. Same root language.
@@neilcarter77 But that doesn't mean that there are no differences! Related yes, but not the same. With the Pennsylvania dutch, you will have more results if you use german

Voornaamwoordelijk bijwoorden zijn heel moelijk. Kun je me helpen met hun? Did I say it right? Please forgive any mistakes I've been studying Dutch for less thana year and I'm Italian so it's quite complicated for me to approach a "Germanic" language :)
Can that be shortened to "Ik heb geen flauw idee" or "geen flauw idee?"

wat is het verschil tussen waar kom je uit en waar kom je vadaan?
Waar kom je uit is a bit weird, because its meaning isn't very literal. It means 'where do you end up?' Waar kom je vandaan (don't forget the 'n') means 'where are you from?'.
אני אוהב את השפה ההולנדית זה נפלא
Netherland is entire country, Holland are provinces within Neteherland... Noord Holland en Zuid Holland
Nou maar goed dankie was interesant hier uit suit Afrika

Für mich als Deutsche scheint mir niederländisch nicht so schwer zu sein, manches kann ich beim lesen verstehen, obwohl ich die Sprache nicht gelernt habe
Ummm babble told me DAG was hello! 🥲

5:06 The Netherlands and Holland are not the same thing 😂
Nederlands en Hollands is nie dieselfde ding! (In Afrikaans)
Tsjetsjenië en Rusland zijn niet hetzelfde ding 😌 alot of ppl think they’re both the same thing but they’re 100% different even the langs and cultures are completely different xD
120 for slavic languages speakers it sounds funny
i'm convinced afrikaans nd dutch is almost the same thing
OK. If no one has answered it before: "Holland and the Netherlands are not the same thing."🙂
Bye tot siens my vriends
Afrikaans: Ek is jammer of Ek is spyt. Ek het berou (formeel)
not easy thooo 😓 the "G" pronunciation is hard
the netherlands and holland are not the same ding!!!
Why are Dutch men so beautiful? Tf
Ek verstaan niks
Ik snap dat Amerikanen dit moeilijk vinden het is een van de moeilijkste talen
Hoi Tom! Ik ben een vrouw en ik drinkt melk.
There is a simpler way to say 'I don't understand' .... Hè?
dat is nederlans niet dutch
Ik hoop dat je niet Dutch en Duits door elkaar haalt, Dutch is Nederlands, German is Duits.
