      Indeed! But I would say that's the case, generally speaking, in all languages. I've always been a language fiend myself, to say the very least, but even so, there are still things about the usage of Spanish (my mother tongue), that I found surprising or confusing once I stopped to analyze them a little closer.

    Ik vind de gebrouk van "toch" interessant. In duits hebben we de woord doch dat een beetje soortgelijk is. We benoeten "doch" in twee situaties. De eerste is een ja-antwoord op en negatiefe vraag: Du hast keinen Hunger? Doch, ich habe Hunger. De tweete is als woord zonder betekenis ( Füllwort ), misschien om iets te versterken: "Du hast doch als Kind schon keinen Käse gegessen". Ik zie dat het in nederlands meer een betekenis hebt van "oder nicht" of tag-questions in English: "You do like fish, don't you?" Gebrouk je "toch" ook zoals "doch" in duits?

    Ik denk dat ''hè'' in Noord Nederland iets anders betekend dan in het zuiden en Vlaanderen.
    Het is genoeg zo he? Zou in Noord Holland toch echt een vraag zijn tewijl als ik een Belg hoor zeggen is het meer zo van:
    Dat is genoeg hoor! Meer in een bevelende of bevestigende toon. Maar het kan van alles betekenen. De toon is heel bepalend.

    In het begin vond ik moeilijk om precies te begrijpen in welke situaties deze woorden worden gebruikt, aangezien dat ze vaak geen eigen betekenis hebben. Ze worden naar mijn mening vaak gebruikt als “figuratieve stijl” en zijn cultuur gerelateerd. Wat ik bedoel is, het klink soms onnatuurlijk als ik ze als buitenlander gebruik. Dit is tenminste mijn gevoel. Trouwens, de man in de video heeft een mooie stem en zijn accent klinkt Limburgs of Brabants. Klopt dat? Kunnen jullie misschien een video maken met de uitspraak van de letter “R”? Deze klank is hartstikke moeilijk om te reproduceren, tenzij je Duitser, Deen of Fransman bent. Dank jullie wel!

    I think I hear ‘nou’ a lot of Dutch tv, they often use there it at the beginning of a sentence when responding to a question from an interviewer. They say “nou ja” at the beginning of their response. I’m wondering what this means exactly . Well yes?? But it’s not a yes/no question the person had been asked! So why they say “nou ja...”?
    It’s almost said with a tone of impatience or something. I can’t figure it out. Anyone know?

    • @EasyDutch
      @EasyDutch  Рік тому +1

      "Nou, ja" is like the English "Well, yeah". :) "Gaat u iets doen om dit probleem op te lossen?" "Nou, ja, we moeten kijken wat we überhaupt kúnnen doen.", for example. :) It's a sort of fill word showing that the person who's answering has acknowledged the situation and all the factors concerned and is answering the question taking all the factors into consideration. At least, this is my impression of it. :)

      @@EasyDutch Thanks, yeah that example kind of sounds familiar. I struggle to find an English equivalent though, that is efficient like that. “Well yeah” isn’t really used much in the same way.
      I find that in the Dutch culture in general it they like to show that they’ve thought of everything, kind of like you describe it. It’s also maybe because the Dutch are a bit more direct and probing when questioning in the first place (tip for my fellow foreigners: don’t take it as aggressive lol, it’s just being direct).
      Kind of reminds me of the concept behind the word ‘bijdehand’, a Dutchie taught me that word. I like it lol.

      @azambon Рік тому

      @@EasyDutch Thanks for replying! In many cases "nog" clearly means "still" or "even" (the English even), whereas in cases like the sentence in 4:23, "Ik moet nog even kijken", it's not clear to me why "even" isn't sufficient by itself. Does "nog" in that case reinforce the meaning of "even"?

    • @EasyDutch
      @EasyDutch  Рік тому +3

      @@azambon
      "Even" means here something as "quick" and "nog" means "still", so:
      "Ik moet nog kijken." means "I still have to look."
      "Ik moet even kijken." means "I have to have a quick look."
      "Ik moet nog even kijken." means "I must still have a quick look.".
      So, "nog" means that it still has to happen and "even" that it'll last shortly. :)
