I went ahead and bought a microphone. Now all I need to do is put it in a better place next time to make it sound even better. I hope you enjoy the video! If you have any questions about it, let me know.
I love Netherlands language and Netherlands people in general. And you teach very well. You are indeed intelligent and also know how to teach, explain and make people understand what you teach. Well-done bro. U bent goed. Mijn naam is Tesimomy obianke irabor
I am a fan of Niels: I watch his videos often ( over and over) so I can learn the nuances of Dutch grammar. He is also very entertaining and inventive in his teaching.
Harstikke bedankt Niel! Ik ben in Nederland al andere half jaar geweest, heb al gestudeerd nederlands in een beroemde universiteit en nu volg ik nog een prive cursus maar ik wist er niet tot je ons vertelde!
You're a life saver. Ik woon al drie jaar in België en ik wist het niet om hoe "maar, pas, Allen" gebruiken. I hope my sentence is well constructed. Thank so much for this video
Dag Lucille, ik ben blij dat het heeft geholpen! As for your sentence, I would say: "Ik wist niet hoe (X) te gebruiken". You can do that with any question word if you want to avoid repeating the subject, like: "Ik weet niet wat te doen". Easier is probably adding adding a 'hulpwerkwoord' (kunnen, mogen, moeten, willen): "Ik weet niet wat ik moet doen" or "Ik wist niet hoe ik (X) kon gebruiken".
Please make more word order videos 🥺 The way you explain things makes so much sense and I think it would really help for the more complicated sentences
Looked at so many videos on Dutch learning on you tube. So far I found these ones to be the best. The way you clarify the concept its really fabulous. God bless you!
I'm sad to see you are no longer making videos.. :( Still...i am so happy you provided us with this amazing content. I'm thankful you went ahead and made these videos
Thank you soooo much, I always had a slight problem with this. "Pas" is actually super funny for me because it means "dog" in my native Croatian. You're growing a nice beard by the way. :)
Hallo Niel! Hartelijk Bedank voor de les! Ik ben zo blij .. Ik studeer pas een jaar Nederlands! Maar uw videos zijn heeeel goed! I learn easily how to make the sentences! Terima kasih 🤩😘😘 sooo happy finally found your channel!
I really appreciate your content! I already knew maar and alleen but pas I didn't understand. The Dutch have so many different ways to say things which their is only one word for in English. This makes it a real handful to understand all of the differences in Dutch as a native English speaker. Half the time I'm just sticking to maar and sounding silly
Hey Niels, very nice lesson, I have immediately referred you to a British friend aspiring to learn Dutch. One thing though, I think there is yet another word in this series: "slechts". It is a more formal word, I believe, it's not a word I’d easily use when speaking. But in writing it is pretty common. "Ik heb slechts drie boeken". I think it is the equivalent of "maar".
Hi Hans, thanks! Yes, you're right, 'slechts' is a formal synonym of 'maar'. I didn't include it because you don't need it very often, but I guess I could have mentioned it, because it is pretty common in advertisements, for example.
Thank you very much! I don't know if it's possible to do a video explaining when to use the words "deze, die, dit, dat" I will appreciate a lot! 😊 The way that you explain dutch is great!
Dank u wel Neil! This video really helps me to figure out the difference of these words. And It’s also a good video to learn on train ! Learning a little Dutch every day is becoming my hobby ☺️✨✨
Great lesson, thank you! Not sure if anyone asked how to also use 'slechts' - I think it can also have 'only' meaning in some context. And what about 'net' (just)?
Please!! I have gone through many many online videos. You are one the top 2 online docenten I go to for quality Dutch learning. I have seen ALL your videos. :)
hello mr. Niels thank you for certivity of learning i am new follower for your page i want to thank you very much about the good subjects that you doing regards
Hi! I am late to the channel but I love it, thanks for sharing. I might be making a suggestion that you've already addressed... but I would love it if you leave the words on the screen a bit longer. Thanks so much!
My daughter and I have thoroughly enjoyed your Dutch language videos. You explain things I can't find answers to elsewhere. Any chance you'll ever go back to making content for this channel? Or have you left the area? Thanks for all the help.
And while learning that I learned some grammar rules along the way 😂 perfect 😘 Thanks to you I learned so much! Like I feel like I am progressing by the day with your videos and I feel like I can actually learn Dutch by myself if I try hard 😂
whispz I’d say the word order is still tricky for me if I wanna make long phrases but I’d say I can introduce myself and have a little bit of chat going on ☺️
Ben je Nederlander ? Het klinkt dat jouw Engels geen accent heeft. Bedankt voor jouw Channel. Jouw uitlegging is heel nuttig en duidelijk. Ga het door!
Fancy that huh Niels mate?! XD In this video when you guys say; "maar" to mean "only" it can also mean; "just" in the same context! XD Because like you said; "Maar" being our only option" I.E ; "Kijk maar naar hoe makkelijk dit" "Just look at how easy this is"! XD Granted there are gonna be times when ya gotta say; "gewoon" that also means; "just" but in THAT context you guys mean; "simply" and "net" that definition of just means; "recently" I.E "Hij is net gekomen" "He has just arrived"! XD I swear to god Niels mate! Learning Dutch for nearly two years has taught me very amazing English lessons I was never taught at school or college! XD
Dankjewel! Good idea, I'll keep it in mind. Be sure to check out the video on 'om te' as well, it deals with a specific type of complex sentences with multiple verbs.
Hi Niles, thank you for the video, your lesson is very clear ans easy to follow! One question what is the difference between duur (deze auto is te duur) and dure (ze hebben alleen dure auto)? May I request you to make a video on the Dutch spelling rules - the long and short vowel sound and open and closed syllable. This is very confusing and the way you explain things are so simple and easy to follow. Thank you in advance.
Using "but "(maar) is also done in English, e.g. I have but 5 euros left. We have but a short time to fulfil our destiny. My eldest child is 20, my youngest but 5.
I went ahead and bought a microphone. Now all I need to do is put it in a better place next time to make it sound even better. I hope you enjoy the video! If you have any questions about it, let me know.
Learn Dutch with Niels. Mag jij de woord ER uitleggen en de woorden waar met op,bij,met,Naas,.....

Amazing, thanks! The clearest Dutch language explanations I've found so far
I love Netherlands language and Netherlands people in general. And you teach very well. You are indeed intelligent and also know how to teach, explain and make people understand what you teach. Well-done bro. U bent goed. Mijn naam is Tesimomy obianke irabor
Niels, please make more. Thank You.
Niels, just found you videos. They are great to learn nuances, that other can not explain.
Hallo Niels, echt bedankt voor deze nuttige video. Ik leer pas een jaar Nederlands. Ik vond deze video heel leuk.
For any portuguese who is watching this:
maar -> apenas
pas--> “ainda só…”
allen -> só
:) thank you Niels !
Maria já alguém te disse que és a maior! Obigado :)
Muito obrigada Maria. Traduzir em inglês não clarificou suficiente. 🌺
Aaa thanks
Perfeito! Valeu demais
I am a fan of Niels: I watch his videos often ( over and over) so I can learn the nuances of Dutch grammar. He is also very entertaining and inventive in his teaching.
Harstikke bedankt Niel! Ik ben in Nederland al andere half jaar geweest, heb al gestudeerd nederlands in een beroemde universiteit en nu volg ik nog een prive cursus maar ik wist er niet tot je ons vertelde!
Dank je wel Niels! We hebben meer video's van je nodig! Je maakt alles heel duidelijk.
Thank you Niels! We need more videos from you. You always make very good........I dont know what duidelijk means lol
Een 'user-friendly' uitleg met mooie voorbeelden. Ik studeer Nederlands al jaren maar er zijn toch nog veel gaatjes. Dank je wel Niels, goed gedaan!
Dank je wel Igor! Er is altijd meer te leren, voor iedereen ;)
Niels , je bent echt goed , ik ben pas één jaar Nederlands leren en ik begrijp je heel goed .
Bedankt,
Groot groeten,
Sara
Ik ben blij dat je de video's nuttig vindt, Saraa! Succes met studeren
You make learning dutch so easy!
Dank u wel, Niels 👌🏻
Great teacher!
You're a life saver.

Learn Dutch with Niels! Nu begrijp ik het.
I'll recommend your UA-cam channel to my friends who are also learning Dutch. ☺☺
Please make more word order videos 🥺 The way you explain things makes so much sense and I think it would really help for the more complicated sentences
Looked at so many videos on Dutch learning on you tube. So far I found these ones to be the best. The way you clarify the concept its really fabulous. God bless you!
Thank you very much. Its been 1 years since I live in Netherlands 🇳🇱 thank you for your help to teach us
I'm sad to see you are no longer making videos.. :( Still...i am so happy you provided us with this amazing content. I'm thankful you went ahead and made these videos
Your videos are great, explanations are simple and easy to understand, please make more.
And to further add to the confusion: "zij hebben alleen nog maar dure auto's" is a perfectly correct thing to say in Dutch 😁
Fun video :)
Jij maakt nederlands leren zo duidelijk!
pls make more video...so helpful huge respect.....
Thank you soooo much, I always had a slight problem with this. "Pas" is actually super funny for me because it means "dog" in my native Croatian.
You're growing a nice beard by the way. :)
Hvala! Glad it helped. I always thought it was funny that 'sir' means cheese in Croatian. It makes English honorific titles a lot funnier ;-)
Grettings from Venezuela mijn vriend!
Very useful. Many thanks to Niels!
I really like the way you explain all difficulties of the Dutch language, because sometimes it looks quite illogical. Thank you!
Thank you for your help us
Thank you a lot, your videos are super useful for me!
Hi Niels I wish you would make a video about niet and geen. I really enjoy your way of teaching.
Great! Your videos are exactly what I needed to supplement Duolingo. You explain everything so well and patiently!
Hi Niels your videos are great be successful you are a good teacher all of them are helpful appreciated you

Really really helpful, been looking for an asnwer to this for a while. Thank you!
Hoi Niels, Ik heb meer Nederlands geleerd: Ik leer door de vragen en reacties te lezen en ze te 'liken', wat zowel mij als jouw kanaal helpt!
Je bent een geweldige leraar! Ik ben heel blij dat ik je heb gevonden.
Bedankt!!! You can explain in a really good way! It helps me a lot! ( Dutch is erg moeilijk )
Je hebt gelijk, nederlands is een beetje moeilijk, maar het is ook heel mooi, inderdaad
Great lesson, thank you! Not sure if anyone asked how to also use 'slechts' - I think it can also have 'only' meaning in some context. And what about 'net' (just)?

Dankjewel! Good idea, I'll keep it in mind. Be sure to check out the video on 'om te' as well, it deals with a specific type of complex sentences with multiple verbs.
Thank you
