Flemish is not a language similar to Dutch, it _is_ Dutch. Belgian Dutch (a.k.a. Flemish) and Netherlandic Dutch are much like British and American English. The pronunciation is a bit different and there are a couple differences in the words that are used, but in written form they are indistinguishable a lot of the time.
this makes Dutch people like me feeling so much better 😂😂
super leuk om te horen/zien dat engelse mensen soms ook nederlands willen leren😊😊
Dutch is also the official language of Suriname, the smallest country in South America :)
+Raphael Soares Yes! All over! :)
+Lindsay Dow ben jij nederlands? /Are you dutch ? ////Ik wel
leer dan gewoon nederlands
No not the smallest french guyena
I an dutch 😂
like als je nederlands bent en je nu supercool voelt XD
Ja 😂😂😂 maar effe eerlijk..ik snap er helemaal niks van (de helft dan 😂)
Ik voel me inderdaad best cool nou😄
+Martina Kornberg 58, thumbs up! Mooie scriptje. Hoeveel kost zoiets?
+Mikkie Blanken Je staat nu buiten in de wind en regen? Dan voel ik me ook koel... En heel Nederlands.
hahahaha jep
And the fact new york first was new Amsterdam
I've been learning Dutch since two years and I do appreciate it! Ik hou van de Nederlandse taal!
Topper!! 😁
Hope you understand this:
Hoi! Super leuk dat je onze taal leert! ik leer (If your are English) jouw taal! Veel succes?
Nenatje@ Dank je wel!
cool and when you are ready you go learning Urkers ( my dialect )
cool en als je klaar bent kun je Urkers gaan leren ( mijn dialect )
Grunnegs! Beter haha
Hiiii I'm Dutch and it would be so nice if more people could speak Dutch too 😊
+Linsey van Kuijk absolutely! :)
Favourite Grammar?
Every grammar rule that we've got has also got like three "sub" rules and none of our rules are precise there are always lots of exceptions!
It sucks its hard to learn.... French/german grammar is easier!
Ik dacht precies dezelfde 😂😂😩😩
hahahah
hetgijsful Will the exceptions ever stop? ;(
I think not.
yup.. I hate my grammar (I'm dutch)
Zo leuk om te kijken...
I think English is one of the easiest languages to learn. I live in the Netherlands, my dad is Frisian and my mom is Norwegian. So I speak Dutch, Frisian and Norwegian. And I get English, German and French lessons at school. So when you speak all these languages, English is really easy.
+Marit Hiemstra definitely! lucky you! :)
Wow, Dutch grammar easy?
I'm dutch and I still struggle with the grammar. Like; I want to become a writer and I have actually given up on writing in dutch because the language is so complex. AND IT'S MY NATIVE LANGUAGE. Now I write in English, which I find a lot easier.
Also both French and Spanish grammar is much easier than Dutch.
I do agree though, that Dutch is easier than German.
spanish and english are indies simpler but french haves to much grammer rules to
+FluffyUnicorn Ik schrijf gewoon in het Nederlands. Engels kan ook wel, maar de opbouw van de zinnen is bij mij nog een probleem. Het lezen daarin tegen gaat wel gemakkelijk. Altijd vreemd om te zien dat je Engelse cijfer op je rapport hoger is dan die van Nederlands!
Ik sta een 5,8 voor Nederlands. Ik ben er echt slecht in hahaha
Waarom is dat raar, je krijgt Nederlands op een heel ander niveau dan Engels.
Dutch is waaaaay harder then German :) Ik ken ook iemand die Canadees is. En zij zegt dat Duits veeeeeel makkelijker is.
Hoi! Ik spreek Nederlands, leuk dat je dit hebt gemaakt.
I live in the Netherlands and had English for six years I really appreciate tourists that speak a bit Dutch I think more people have to learn this language because its awesome :D
+rowen geleijns thanks! I looove the Dutch language (+ country!) so much! :)
Another reason to learn Dutch is that if you are in a group of Dutch people and you can't speak Dutch, only English, they will ignore the fact that you don't understand it and can't participate in the conversation and they will just talk Dutch.
It's really funny when foreigners try to pronounce our words... :p
+Nick Van Bael haha! ;)
+Nick Van Bael -Like what?
+maksim5078 that a town 😋
omg ja
+gribbering oaf ja die is ook moeilijk
Now you think the grammar is easy, but it's actually really hard. It's one of the hardest languages for foreigners to learn.
+Anouk van der Voort Hahahaha nice meme
+Anouk van der Voort No lol, Dutch is one of the easiest languages to learn for English-speakers.
+Shinhyeo Well yes, the main part is, but what she probably meant are the irregularities, I have personally only met a single person who had learned to use the Dutch grammar system fluently, and only after years if living in The Netherlands. Then again, you'll most likely be understood just knowing the basics.
+Shinhyeo I meant that it's an extremely irregular language
+Anouk van der Voort Ok, I'm tired of Dutch people saying that the grammar makes it one of the hardest languages to learn. I'm learning Dutch from English, and it really is not that bad. All you need to do is move the main verb to the end of the sentence half the time. French is harder by far!
+Lindsay Dow KUN JIJ MIJ VERSTAAN?! IK BEN NAMELIJK NEDERLANDS, EN DEZE VIDEO VOND IK WEL LEEEUUK😂
+Klinko games haha! bedankt! :)
+Klinko games JA IK VOND HEM OOK HEEL LEUK IN WELKE PROVINCIE WOON JIJ
+Lindsay Dow HALLO IK BEN OOK NEDERLANDS WEET JIJ WAAR DE WILLEM PIJPERLAAN IN ZEIST LIGT ZOEK HET MAAR OP
Mobile Games ja je hebt gelijk engels is een stuk makkelijker
+RyCaJe limburg
I'm learning dutch because me fiancé and his family are from the netherlands. i want to be able to join in conversation with out them having to repeat themselves in english.
the moment I heard Audrey Hepburn speak dutch I fell in love with the language..
We in the netherlands say that dutch in one of the hardest laguages to learn😊
*is
it is because we say the 'g' hard and not soft and that is the same thing with the 'r' and that is difficult to learn for people who don't speak dutch
klopt
Well not only we.. Almost everyone.. She is literally the first person ever who said dutch is easy (what ive heard)
xD
according to the United Nations dutch is in catagory one, which is most simpel to learn for English speakers. Catagory five is the hardest, and is preserved for japanese.
When your speaking dutch you can understand Afrikaans
+Maximus Game awesome! :)
Yeah when someone whose not dutch tries his or her best to speek dutch to me i really appreciate it
I love how, in the end, she talks about Belgium and she starts to sing a song from Stromae :)
+silke segers Big love for Stromae! :D
I am dutch myself, about the grammar though... I think english grammar is way easier than dutch grammar...
Dutch isn't that easy as she makes it sounds..
There's not much grammar in Dutch your right, but in every grammar rule there are so much exceptions so that makes it really hard.
if you ask a dutch person (like me) we hate dutch grammar :P once you get into the advance rules even we give up
I totaly agree ,
Our grammar sucks (dutch grammar)
Am I the only dutch person who watches this kind of video's? Like the trying candy?😂
Hahaha zoo waar 😂
same! hahah zo grappig altijd
nee ik kijk het heel de dag door xD
Nee ik ook😊
Ik kijk altijd de video's met Trying to speek Dutch ;-)
haha your dutch sounds really funny 😂
no hate tho
If Dutch is so easy I don't understand why like 60% of Dutch people can't spell or use grammar correctly :').
Haha yup ;)
My mom is a native Dutch speaker from The Netherlands and she said that she can understand almost all of Afrikaans and that it’s “Dutch with a weird accent”. My mom also says that Flemish is “basically normal Dutch with a softer G and some different vocabulary” but she can usually figure out by context. She can also understand a lot of german. In other words, Dutch opens a lot of language doors!
I'm from Belgium and i do speak flemish but flemish is just the same language as dutch. The language in Belgium and The Netherlands is like what they speak in New York and what they speak in Texas for example
er zijn ook een paar andere woorden die we in nederland niet gebruiken hoor... zoals muizenstrontjes en wenen. leuke woorden trouwens
Dutch easy? hahaha well geuss you need to learn more dutch:P I am dutch and I find all those rules anything but easy:P
Vgm vind je engels ook best lastig
Engels is niet lastig alleen typ ik altijd te snel waardoor ik fouten maak. Simpel.
Bijvoeglijk voornaam woord , zelfstandig naamwoord, effect serieus tis Lastig
Lol learning to speak Dutch is pretty damn difficult 😁 I'm a native and I don't even get some things, combining 2 vowels to make 1 sound (just a separate letter really) like what is that even? But this was a lovely video tho!!Maar dit was zeker wel een leuke video!!
+Susan De Visser haha! Thanks! Glad you liked it! :)
I'm Frisian, all Frisians do speak Dutch though
+JYAA Witteveen cool :)
geen toeval, ook van origin drents?
geen toeval, ook van origin drents?

Ik bin frysk! xD
Uh yeh, Im german and speak english pretty well too.. and I honestly dont have big issues with learning dutch xd
Chose to learn dutch just because it's grammar is basically the same as german lol
Nice :P
is that a anime pf ? xD
is that a anime pf ? xD
#4 ... I started learning Dutch but whenever I tried speaking Dutch with someone from the Netherlands they got exasperated and said, "Let's just speak English." Disappointing because it is a fun language to learn. :(
want to quickly learn a language? good luck with that if you want to learn dutch. I am dutch and even I get it wrong al the time.
DUTCH IS EASY ahha don't make me laugh it's one of the hardest in the world. the dutch language has exceptions on exceptions. there are a ton of rules that just don't have a reason. Don't get me wrong it's a great language
I don't speak Dutch, but I could listen to you talk for hours. You are a very intriguing person.
Quite funny, my English teachers always tell me how hard Dutch is to foreigners. I've got an English teacher who lives in the Netherlands for over ten years, but still doesn't speak Dutch, just because we speak English :)
so I'm from Belgium and I got this to say: the "glucking" sink problem comes from an inadequate air flow, this could be solved by adding a one way air valve to your sewage/septic system. it's best if you add this piece high up but you could also put it beneath the sink. This would also help with the sewage smell because your water locks won't be drained.
+mrboutsky it's fixed now thanks! :)
hai I am from the Netherlands. I live in Amersfoort, the exact centrum of Netherland.
I speak English with a British accent, I readto much Harry Potter. But Dutch is a very difficult language, when you look closer to the grammar, it's deffinetly more difficult then English.
ps. sorry for my bad grammar and vocab, because I am only 14 years and I learn this language since I was 11
I think Dutch is one of the hardest languages in western Europe. But I am a native speaker. So I cannot Judge, really. But I hear that from people who speak more languages than I do. I only speak Dutch, English and German.
I speak Dutch! Because.. I am Dutch :p (good enough reason right?)
So basically: Go Dutch? .. It is a cool language, yes, but I prefer English over everything..
It's got more style and class than any language I know, plus it's used in just about anything important. (coding languages, international stock market, music)
Even in The Netherlands, we can't go without English, we tend to use English an Dutch at the same time, just to be clear about specific stuff.. Also because the Dutch words are sometimes annyoing to use, especially by the younger people.. Whenever you have to purnounce an actual proper Dutch word, they tend to make slang or just use English.
I'm dutch but I read sooooo mant english books my brain is getting rewired to english orthats how I feel about it.
🤓
Hahah how Nice is this! We, dutchies, speak a lot of languages: english, french, deutsch, spanish but nobody speaks dutch 😬 respect, because dutch is such a difficult language
I'm learning Dutch right now. I know what to say water in Dutch. Sandwich is fun too.
whuhahaha
Boterham:)
Ik doe water op sandwiches
Dutch is really hard actually, especially the grammar!
Inderdaad
My great grand parents moved from the Netherlands to the US in the early 1900s. It would be cool to learn the language, to speak to my grandma in her parents language
I think its so awesome you talk a little Dutch! I love it when foreigners try to learn my language :)
I'm Dutch and Dutch is actually one of the worlds hardest languages to learn because the grammar literally makes no sense. There's always some kind of special rule to some words which makes you think that when you finally got it, you didn't get it at all. It's kinda like maths.
I'm Dutch and I always am really suprised when people are so interested in Dutch :D
Reason number 4 is soo true. Since English tends to be pretty easy for most of us, and our language isn't used in too many other places, we don't really expect foreigners to speak it, neither do we deem it necessary. So when people do learn our language it impresses me a lot that they went through the effort of learning it. Source: I've grown up with yearly holidays spent in england and had the pleasure of learning Dutch to some great English friends.
Btw, your accent when you say the numbers in dutch is adorable.
I'm dutch, and I can tell you it would sure cheer me up if a tourist tried to speak dutch
You should try Papiamento. If one language is easy on the grammar, it's Papiamento. O, if you are in a place where people speak Papiamento, they understand you also when you speak Dutch. People speak Papiamento in DC, Dutch Caribbean.
I speak dutch because its my native language 😊
+nena1girl cool! :)
It's like the Dutch word for rhinoceros sounds like nose horn. The Dutch word for zoo literally translates into animal garden.
Ik zou blij zijn als er iemand Nederlands praat tegen mij
Oh, you are so lovely. :) Thank you. I AM learning Dutch -- hoping to go and work there or to become a translator.
Ik ben Nederlands en ik ben 14 jaar oud. Ik vind het heel erg leuk dat je Nederlands aan het leren bent (I am dutch and I am 14 years old. I really like that You are trying to learn Dutch)
Ik ben Nederlands! Wat leuk te zien deze video!
Nice to see that you know the numbers in dutch❤ Love to everyone who speaks or want to speak dutch
I'm Dutch but I learned English at such an early age that sometimes I think that I speak English better than I speak Dutch. :)
I'm Dutch and want to help you with speaking Dutch. But you are on the good path!
het is grappig als je nederlands bent en deze video kijkt het zijn eigelijk 9 complimenten over onze taal
Hi Lindsay Williams! Could you please suggest me some good UA-cam channels to pick up Dutch (CEFR A1). I am already proficient in English (C1) and German (B1). Thanks in advance. :)
I speak dutch, german and english (and a little bit of french, but it doesn't count)... german and dutch are my mothertongues (I live in germany, my dad is german and my mum is dutch) and i learn english at school for 5 years now... it funny to hear you speak dutch!
Jihaaaaani speak frisian, dutch, englisch, german and french whoop whooopp
+Sjoukje de Jong woop! :)
And the most important reason; if it ain't Dutch, it ain't much :D
love it, Lindsay. bedankt!
+Howtogetfluent bedankt! :)
Basic Dutch grammar is easy, until you get to the details (sentence diagram and the possibility that you can create words with an infinate amount of letters). Also there is no 'bridge' between German and English, I do agree that it's kinda in between but Dutch formed earlier than French influenced English. Many people struggle with the pronounciation of the 'r' (which is easy if you speak French tho because the sound is similar) 'g' 'ch' 'ij' 'ei' 'ui' and 'eu' are hard to pronounce if you're not a native speaker. The words are quite easy tho
I just started learning Dutch, got inspired to learn when I watched a film in Dutch. it's a really nice language, just need to get over the pronunciation
The pronunciation of foreigners trying Dutch is so damn funny tho (for Dutch people especially)
Hahahahah yed
+Mike Beckers "buitenlanders die Nederlands proberen", Ik lach me dood(elke dag als ik die zin lees).
Thank you!
+New World Forward I'm Swedish, but there's so much Chinese, Japanese, German, French on UA-cam. Never heard much about "dutch". Dutch is usually just another reason to learn some other language... Like "Ukrainian"!!!
reason number 4 is so true. when someone even tries to speak Dutch to me i think its very good.. A lot of people think way too easy cause almost every Dutch person knows English so they go for the easy way. But if you go for the hard way and really try to speak Dutch i am very proud!
Reason 4 is true. Other people never speak Dutch when they're in the Netherland, but when we are on a holiday, in England for example, the expect us to talk English. We really love when people talk to us in our own language. That's easier for us to.
Loved your video!
+Ann abelle Hej! Thanks for commenting! :)
I am Dutch and here is a small test for people who are not Dutch. pronounce the following sentence GOOD. de schelle goochelaar ging gisteren goochelen. GOOD LUCK😉
hihi ik vind dit soort videos altijd leuk
I'm dutch and I really like this video because you are sooo positive about dutch.. Number 4 is so true, we here are very happy with people from the other country's who speak dutch because it's an difficult language you know☺️
+Elvira Kouwenhoven Thanks for commenting! :)
Dutch grammer might not have difficult grammer, but that is actually exactly what makes it difficult. There are so many cases you can't apply any "rules". You just have to know why something is said or spelled a certain way without any reason why.
Best leuk om dit te zien als je Nederlands bent😂 De gramatica is wel moeilijker als het lijkt, als je er niet bent geboren😊
I noticed that "conversing with Dutch people" isn't given as a reason to learn Dutch... And after reading many of their replies on videos like this one, I can understand why.
There are some words whose spelling is the same both in dutch and in english. For example, "water"... When I visited Amsterdam I read a sign on a shop-entrance-door which reads "is open". I could not work out whether "is open" was english Language or dutch Language...
2:21 So same. I ALWAYS thought that way about the two languages and dutch being the bridge :)
Haha OMG I'm Dutch! I love to see how positive you are about our language!
I'm German and speak German, English and Spanish and now I wanna learn Dutch☺
reason number 4 is true! i'm dutch and i'm always impressed when other people can speak dutch who aren't dutch haha
Als jij reageert op Nederlandse reacties, gebruik je dan nog google vertaler of kan je het ook zonder?
Dutch is easy nederlands is makkelijk
I am a native from the countryside of the Netherlands and I sometimes even speak with a accent. I can also understand Frisian and Flemish, although not completely. It's pretty nice that someone likes this harsh language. I really really like it. Yay!!! XD
I speak dutchhhhh (I'm belgian, I speak dutch,french, english, german and a little bit of italian) it's super sweat to hear that you like dutch so much!! Xx
I live in Belgium and speak dutch and i like it wen people talk to my in Dutch
I'm learning Dutch right now, thank you for making this video.
ik ben zo blij dat deze video bestaat nu voel ik me trots op mijn taal :)
Aww ❤️ that's so sweet of you!! Hahaa i am so proud that Dutch is my mother tongue 😍🇳🇱
I speak Dutch, German, French, Turkish, English and a little bit of greek and latin(like I took lessons on Greek and Latin but never ended them)
😱😱😱 i speak alone english (little bit) dutch,Urdu,punjabi (little bit) xD Indian,Pakistan and...euhm i dont know 😱
Dutch is actually one of the harders languages to learn for people who don't come from a country where the speak Dutch. But you did a good job with saying the numbers in Dutch. Good luck with learning Dutch!
I'm Dutch but i'm on my school i get 80% in English, i hope i meet you once❤️🇳🇱
Cool video! But how do you learn Dutch, when you can already speak it quite well? I see many courses for beginners, but I find it so difficult to find a way to learn Dutch from a high level to the highest.
