I started learning Dutch grammar in a proper way. Your videos are certainly making complex topics easier to understand and remember. Appreciate your effort.
I just think you are one good microphone away from being the next UA-cam star! Donating my share now. Everyone else: you should support Niels's awesome channel!
Learn Dutch with Niels! hi niels thank you for your video,it's really helpful. can you make a explanation about door en bij and bijzonder en speciaal. thank you.
Learn Dutch with Niels! Amazing!!!! Always being corrected in my Dutch but could never work out the pattern. Thanks so much for such a wonderful and clear explanation. I'm sure all the people who listen to me speak also thank you so I can reduce the number of mistakes I make and be better understood. Wonderful :)
I know this video is a bit over two years old, but I've only recently started to (try to) learn Dutch, and found this channel, and you've explained some things a lot better than books and sites I've found, so thank you very much. Can't really support you financially since I'm in a bad place atm, but I'd like you to know I appreciate what you're doing, and I hope you will keep doing it. :) (I saw that it's once again been a while that you've uploaded anything, but at least I still have some videos to go through.)
Heel erg bedankt voor de behulpzame video's! Ik ben een Amerikaan en woon in België tijdens het Corona-virus, dus ik besteed veel tijd aan het leren van Nederlands. Je stijl is zo vriendelijk en geweldig.:-D
Hello, Niels, your videos have helped a lot to learn dutch. i am making a course by the municipality in Amsterdam. My teacher is good but sometimes she doesn´t know how to explain some things and you do it really well. Thank you.
I found your videos today by 'accident'. Been looking up other youtube lessons but they aren't as helpful as yours and I almost gave up learning Dutch. So, thank you, Niels. I'm grateful for your videos. I will definitely watch all of them!
I was so afraid when I got to this unit on Duolingo because I was worried it was going to be really hard. I read the lesson notes and kept avoiding it. Meanwhile, you explained it so simply and so well. Dank u wel voor alles!
Merci, vous êtes un excellent prof pour compléter les vidéo de Baart de Pau et d' EVA, grâce à vous trois, je ne m'ennuie pas pour apprendre le hollandais ! Mile bravos!
I followed Dutch course for four months using NT2 books. It's incomparable with your videos. You explain everything so clearly in a few minutes and that's it. No science. Thank you for your videos and keep making others please. We all appreciate it a lot ❤️
Thanks so much...Finally i understand when to use Staan..liggen..zitten or hanggen....appreciated. . looking forward to see more of your useful video's. Thanks a gain
Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for this video! I have been struggling to figure out Dutch syntax for the last three months. You explained the basics of Dutch sentence structure so well that it actually makes sense in my head now! You truly are a talented teacher! I will make a contribution once my situation is in a better place.
Hi Teddy, thanks for your input. That's not really the focus of my channel right now, because most Dutch course books focus on these situations. I wanted to focus on grammar issues that people often have trouble with, or grammar topics that are hard to find.
You can technically do this with English as well, at the risk of sounding archaic or literary. "Amsterdam lies in the Netherlands," or "Your grapes are sat on your desk" are valid-sounding sentences. They'd sound *better* with simply "to be," but they have historical precedent and especially with "liggen," they're used when determining the position of geographical locations.
Je lijkt me een heel leuke docent! Jammer dat je het niet meer professioneel doet. Dank je voor je heel begrijpelijke video's en vooral de uitleg van belangrijke grammatica.
I'm learning Dutch and I just found out about your videos today. I definitely am going to subscribe to your channel. I found your videos quite easy to understand. Thanks for making these videos.
As a Dutch person, I'd add the following to "staan" to maybe make it easier to remember: Anything that's upright, or cognitively "upright" (or the "correct/normal" position) You can say "De tafel staat buiten" (The table is outside), but you could also say "De tafel ligt buiten", which would imply it's not "upright", meaning on its side, or upside-down. An example with a computer monitor. If someone tells you: "De monitor XXX in de andere kamer" (The monitor (is/XXX) in the other room) "Staan" would imply the default/correct position. "Liggen" would imply it lying flat. "Zitten" would probably accompanied by "in (een doos/kast)" (a box/closet) "Hangen" would obviously dangle from something... maybe by the (power) cord from the ceiling?
I've been learning Dutch for 4 months via DuoLingo and Rosetta Stone. Though I feel like I have the basic vocabs, I was still having issues with grammar and all the nuances with Dutch. I am so happy and thankful I found your channel. I am quite low-tech and want to support you but don't know how. Please send me a link where I can do this. Thank you!
Niels these are awesome videos! Keep it up and make some more! I liked the idea that you went outside in Germany to make the demonstrative video, it was cool but your informations are absolutely an A1! Hey, just be more clear on how to invest more... maybe mention it in the beginning on why you have taken a while to make a video...i look forward to your new videos
Hi Liza, thanks for your comment! I don't want to bother people too much with vlog-style comments in the beginning, because I primarily want my videos to be a resource that gets straight to the point, but I realize that people don't always stick around till the end. It's a tough thing to balance and get right.
The most wonderful Dutch teacher.
