    This video was recorded by Daniel Bogre Udell in the Netherlands and features Zeeuws speakers Klazina and Huib. Zeeuws (known as 'Zeelandic' in the English speaking world) is spoken by over 200,000 people. Zeeuws is a Low Franconian language of West Germanic belonging to the Indo-European language family. It is considered by linguists a dialect of Dutch, however stark lexical and grammatical differences render its intelligibility with Standard Dutch difficult. It is spoken in the southernmost part of South Holland and much of the province of Zeeland. The forming of the Zeeuws dialect from Dutch is thought to have occurred in the early Middle Ages as control of Zeeland was contested by Holland and Flanders, prompting a schism with influences from the north and south. Given that travel to and from the islands of Zeeland was difficult well into the 20th century, strong isoglosses have emerged along island boundaries. Zeeuws is in decline but not considered an endangered dialect at present. There is a movement to recognize Zeeuws as a regional language under the European charter for minority languages.

      Is it possible to use another, better example of zeelandic? See comments - this video is basically in dutch with an accent.

    I am a native speaker of Zeeuws dialect. They speak actual Standard Dutch here with some Zeeuws woord, not the true traditional Zeeuws. However they are from a different village in Zeeland so maybe everybody speaks like this there.

      Hi,
      my family is from Vlissienge, but I was born and raised elsewhere far away a couple of generations after the family moved. I have not been able to learn any Zeêuws from anyone in the family as most don't speak it either.
      Do you have any idea if there is ways for someone abroad to learn Zeêuws?
      I have looked a lot online and I can't find anything.

    As a Flemish (Dutch) Belgian this sounds a lot closer to Flemish than a Holland Dutch accent. I found this a lot easier to understand than most Holland Dutch!

    This is typical for what happens if speakers of regional / minority languages are asked to speak their language in an unnatural, formal situation. Most of the language spoken in this video is standard dutch with a pretty light zeelandic accent and a few zeelandic words.
    A better example but still relatively dutch: ua-cam.com/video/HlbwOhyRSdk/v-deo.html, from 01:38

      I was about to say the same. I am trying to learn Afrikaans. And Flemish sounds a lot like it. Just more complicated gramatically. Zeeuws sounds like it closely . Because I have family from Zeeland.

    Ik heb met Huib op de lagere school gezeten in Zierikzee, heb zelf Zeeland verlaten in de 70er jaren, woon nu in het buitenland en ben met een Française getrouwd. Wat mij opvalt is dat Huib zijn zuiver Zierikzees een beetje heeft verloren. Ik merk dat bij vele Zeeuwen, zij spreken nog Zeeuws maar niet zo zuiver meer als ik het kende toen ik nog in Zeeland woonde. Als ik nog eens terugkeer naar Zeeland dan valt het de meeste Zeeuwen op dat ik nog zo'n oud Zeeuws spreek.

      Mijn grootvader sprak altijd van 'Schouwen' tuurlijk was er 'Duveland'... Als fam. De Bruyne kwamen we van de Schouwse Hofstad de Helle, daarna Z'zee. Mijn grootouders/moeder/oom verlieten de stad en eiland in 1950... De Ramp maakten we niet ter plekke mee. Voor mij (geboren 1960!) is de stad Z'zee het decor van prachtige verhalen en herinneringen. Dat laatste woordje 'juust' dat bleek dus in NL juist te zijn :P Dat regeltje van >> de zeeuwse taal is de mooist van allemaal

    As a Flemish person Zeeuws sounds very confusing, though gentle. It's like they switch between hollandic and flemish inbetween sentences, but I honestly really like it.

      It's probably very difficult to find someone who speaks the heavy variety of this dialect anymore. As time goes on, heavy dialects will gradually erode due to pressure from the standard language. Now it is a standard Dutch substrate with some Zeelandic words. Most heavy dialects will be extinct within 30 years.

I am Dutch myself and this was very easily understandable, practically being just dutch with an accent and a few funny words that still exist in the Dutch language eitherway.
