Old english and old frisian are almost similar. They acknowledge that. Frisians were the sea-traders from the area. They traded from/to Russia/Scandinavia/Germany/France/England. Tradingcenters like Dorestad (Rheine) and Haitabu (North-Friesland in northern Germany) were their centers. They had a tradingquater in York in Kent/East Anglia. Why is the Northsea called Northsea? Frisia had Northsea/Middelsea and Southsea. And other countries called the Northsea the Frisian Sea.😊

So when I have sex, and I am on top, I have something under the knee?

At German universities they teach that you must take Dutch for marketing and product development; for production germans with a German chief; they shout louder. True; look at all German cars; when you park them next to each other, they all have the same fat behind, like German women....

Everything has ups and downs. Now we are on the down route; we have filled our country with barbarian natives, made native Dutch the enemies of the state, and put left wing leaders in their chairs, who are more stupid than wood Note: university of Amsterdam has a toilet for menstruating men......

Yeah... It isn't as easy as you'd think it would be. The English language was really "dumbed down" and simplified as it progressed from OE to ME... It had to be so speakers of OE, ON, and Norman French could make themselves understood to each other. I assume Frisian may still have case/genders like German... English ditched that a long time ago to make the language simpler.

In the Netherlands, the house front door opens inwards and the back door opens outwards as standard. 👋🏻

8:33 "Heeft dat echt gebeurt ?" is not correct. The correct spelling would be : "Is dat echt gebeurd ?"

The few foreign folms I've seen, Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal... La Dolce Vida... Japanese The Seven Samuri... French Beauty And The Beast... I'm so happy I came across your channel, I can pursue a long-time interest. Thank you ❤

1. People you don't know well, professional settings or elders (formal) vs. family, friends, and kids (informal). I was an exchange student. My Dutch oma didn't speak much English because German was emphasized when she was in school. She asked someone else in the family questions to ask me. I answered in Dutch each time. After a few questions, she looked into my eyes and said, "Jij praat goed Nederlands." 2. When I was attending school, English was a required course from middle through high school. They had to read 40 novels in English as part preparation for the exit exam to graduate. Many enjoy using their skills with people who don't know Dutch. 3. Yes and no. I learned mostly American English. Most of my classmates were learning British English. Some words in Dutch are closer to American English than British English, vakantie/vacation/holiday. I've since studied German. There are some false friend words which I have to remember because they sound the same but have different meanings, of those some are related such as Uhr and uur. GRAMMAR This helped me strengthen languages I'd studied earlier and notice rhythms faster in German, Latin, and other languages which move the verb to the end in declarative sentences. Children's books especially poetry books from the library were helpful. Now I can switch some dvds to other languages.

Why do they switch: they want to speak English; they want to make it easy for you because your dutch is terrible and their English is great so lets just talk in English. There is an American who learned Spanish who said the same thing about speaking Spanish to Spanish speakers - he would talk in Spanish and they would reply in English. He told me, this only changed and stayed in Spanish when he reached an undefined level of Spanish proficiency and the convo could stay in full throttle Spanish.

Don't forget the Airfryer and the Quooker, a tap that is now used in almost every Dutch household.

How nice of you to take the trouble to mention Miffy in your list of Dutch 'inventions'. Dick Bruna passed away a number of years ago. We had the same doctor and sometimes met each other in the que when we went to get our flu shot. Little moments. When my girlfriend authored a book in Miffy style to celebrate the birth of her niece, she dropped a copy in Dick's mailbox. Both my girlfriend and Dick were very keen on using exceptionally good language. He really appreciated that she had understood his style and invited us to his studio. What followed was a very pleasant afternoon. It's like having coffee with your grandfather. He signed the booklet my girlfriend had made as a sign of his approval. Dick was a well-known Utrecht resident. But also, very well known outside of it. There were objects in his studio from all over the world that were sent to him by his fans. He was extremely pleased with that. Dick was the sweet man you expect behind Miffy. Utrecht now has a Miffy Museum. If you are a fan of Miffy and ever in Utrecht, you should definitely visit: nijntjemuseum.nl/

True. There is a lot to learn

De reden dat wij veel van taal wisselen is omdat mensen uit andere landen zoals frankrijk duitsland of spanje verwachten dat wij hun taal kunnen spreken, maar zij hebben geen reden om nederlands te leren

For people struggling with Google Translate, there's a better free translator which is powered by AI which is really good, it's called deepL. Give it a go!

Cool, normally all think Dutch is the most ugliest language in the world. Many go for Spanish or Italian. When you are born here you don'''t mind. Today most people in this country here even speak Dutch. When go to a cafe or shopping mall all is English. Dutch will leave, for dislikers of the language be happy :-). This language will be gone in 100 years!

Step 3: I could have the audio at 0.5x speed and my speed will be too slow, I cant speak as fast as some Dutch people in English, I have no chance haha

I also have the most problems with "ui" and rolled "r" sound 😅

Ive been trying to find data on how expensive indonesia is, NOT including bali. Like where does it land on the scale with other SE asia countries?

Kind of from a different path, I learnt Dutch a few years ago after being a Heritage speaker (I spent the first 8 years of my life in the Netherlands, and grew up speaking both Dutch and English, but I stopped speaking Dutch when I moved to Canada). I could still understand everything (my oma & opa aren't particularly fluent in English, and my parents still listened to Dutch shows and radio), and had a native accent, but my active vocabulary reduced itself massively. The relearning process is also particularly strange in that my skill levels were very varied. Grammar and vocabulary were essentially useless as I had the native background (granted, faded, and that of an 8 year old), and any especially prepared reading materials were too easy to be useful (I did need to learn how to read, but at least it's more consistent than spoken :P). I ended up having to force myself into an entirely Dutch environment (turned my kindle language to Dutch, and started [tried, at least] responding to my parents exclusively in Dutch).

flodders is ook grappig

Casey, what a nice video! I was born in Holland, raised from 7 years old in USA and now live with my husband in Canada. He is Canadian born of Dutch parents who immigrated to Canada before he was born, obviously. Anyway, needless to say my Dutch is very rusty and although I understand basics from having spoken it as a child, it is difficult to speak or listen to things of adult matters such as listening/comprehending the news or matters of business or politics etc. Husband and I both have cousins in the Netherlands so we like to visit as often as we can and with each visit my Dutch improves a little, but I try to improve by listening to Dutch reports and watching Dutch language videos as much as I can to keep improving. I understand what you say about Dutch people wanting to speak English. Part of the reason for it, I believe, is because they want to be helpful, and if they see it is too much of a struggle they think they can help by simply going to English. Another reason is we like to show off a bit, and that is true for native Dutch speakers who can speak English. My experience is they like to show that they can speak English, but also it is good practice for them to be able to use the language so they improve as well and so not get rusty like I did with my Dutch usage. I agree that the Dutch are wonderful people ❤we love going and immersing in the wonderful culture and sights and people every time we visit. You are very lucky you get to live in such a sweet little country. I subscribed so maybe I can learn more Dutch as I learn with you. ❤️🙏

I found your video because I am starting a 10 days challenge before my trip in China ^^ to be able to have a "core" vocabulary corpus and continue for sure after my trip. (I put my other languages on standby :^p) Thank you for Yoyo, I'm starting today. I found this HSK vocab ressource: www.unige.ch/ic/files/7915/4272/2792/HSK_VOCABULARY_.pdf After 3 years, do you still practice chinese?

Language is so interesting!

Ach ja...

Je hebt het fantastisch gedaan, mijn complimenten. 👍👍👍👍👍

i respectfully disagree with point 3. i feel like it is an opinion of someone with surface level dutch and who isnt surrounded by dutch at their job, friend groups, at home etc. i actually thought english and dutch vere really similar before i started learning. upon diving into it, it has no similarity to english whatsoever. pronounciation is different, grammar is different, emphasis in the word is different...sure, your adding cie and lijk at end of rando international / continent wide used words to make them up and them being correct in some cases, that can be 'handy' to get by in an already mutilated sentence. but that alone isnt enough to hold a conversation nor become better at dutch. because to learn dutch you need to learn...well...dutch words, not englishified words. to demonstrate how this can harm your conversational skills, is at 05:35 mark in your video where you explain how adding -ig to words makes a new dutch word for you. well sadly, unlike youve said, nutty doesnt translate into nuttig, since nuttig has a whole different meaning (it means 'useful'.) the core of dutch language is really nothing alike other languages ive studied, not even that close to german in my opinion. to go off your example, word information having a variation in nearly every european language (informacija, informatie, informacion, informace, információ , informazione etc) doesnt mean they are similar languages nor that this knownledge alone is gonna make you learn that language faster. to me personally, knowledge of english didnt help at all with learning dutch. i actually think i would be able to learn dutch faster and better if i didnt know english at all beforehand. (my native language is croatian.) why do i think that no knowledge of english would had been better? because my head wants to apply english rules to the language subconsciously and it doesnt work. and because of so many words in dutch that are spelled or sound like english words but have different meaning, and in the beginning messing hard with my head. want = because. of = or. fijn = nice. beer = bear. and many others. it gives an illusion of familiarity, but theres like a billion onion layers and every time you think to yourself you reached a new milestone, you made progress, youve learned, there comes a situation around the corner where all you know falls apart and you feel humbled all over again lol. to end it off am i writing this maliciously? NO! girl youre awesome. but as a newbie to dutch i watched a ton of videos like these who sadly lead me into wrong direction with without bad intentions. i was just hoping other people dont fall into the englishified trap. what is my smartass ultimate tip to the newbies? surround yourself with dutch language. whether at a job (i didnt know dutch when i moved but i got a job in a dutch company where i did use english in the beginning), volunteer and make it clear youre trying to integrate (i volunteered at a nearby elementary school (later on at an organisation taking care of the elderly), did small things such as clean, and help, but they all spoke dutch), listen to A LOT OF MEDIA IN DUTCH. I had to drive 40 min to my work and back so i just tuned into dutch radio. Just listen and repeat what they say. Practice pronounciation. Its ok if you dont understand it all. and yes i had a 1 year free dutch course...didnt help me at all personally.

Alot, just come here to Indonesia

The Dutch are far too modest and lack confidence when it comes to language. They should value and enjoy their language and stop prattling in Denglish.

Something people who are aware of classes in the Netherlands know is that only lower class people say 'Eet smakelijk'. The reason for this being that the meals of rich people are delicious always.

You sound like "Zus Stokvis". That's a fictional character from the province of Drenthe from a national television series. Absolutely positive, and quite funny that I hear those short bits of Dutch here.

You managed pretty well with your interpretation of the clip, well done! Unfortunately the speaker was an English speaking (mother tongue) South African who understands and speaks Afrikaans as a second or third language. It was not linguistically correct in many respects.

9:22 but a 4 hours flight. there is incomprehensiveness...( is that a word? ) .for a Dutchie.. East to West is 2 hours..North-South is 4 hours diagonally..

8:57 ..Dit kun je op j klompen aan voelen.. Mis je je familie.. nee, geen enkel moment, blij dat ik aan letterlijk de andere kant van de wereld voor ze ben. ( Dutch sarcasm..it would be fun to throw that back to an Aussie asking that)

7:21 The Dutch speak English back you beacuse they wnt you io still make yourself clear in what is needed and what is going on.. not because of keeping you from speaking Dutch, but want to make you feel at ease, so we stumble in English and make you comfortable as foreigner..you are guest.. that is what lies behind the Dutch switching to English so often.. we know Dutch is difficult in all its nuances..even Dutchies themselves are struggling..but that has also got t do with cellphones..Dutch gets more and more Anglified..moved out.. on regions of NEtherlands..dialects are mor e and more shoved away..but that is a subject different. I love your channel, Highly Combustable Reactions pointed me here on his Netherlands journey, watched all of them, watched mny of yours aswell.. yes, buthead here.. I did subscribe now finally, hahaha,

4:59 From the most populair Australian series EVER !!! NO!!! Not Neighbours.... FLYING DOCTORS !!!!!! Deserts with some villages scattered somewhere... in.. ehm.. and Melbourne, Syndey and Darwin and the other one <-- lol.. are all at the East, and there are beaches with palms.. and the rest is desertland but named Arnhemland after Dutch city Arnhem...and Tasmania is named after a Dutchie and New Zealand is names after a Dutch provence, and Australia was a short while New Holland, named after two other Dutch provincies.. summary of Dutchy tripping over words to explain Australia..hahahah, but basically...oh.. 2wait... Crocodile Dundee didn't help us either...hahahaha

16:29 WAUW !!!!! Awesome!!!! I certainly didn't have that feeling finishing the English version of Grahama Hancock's "Riddle of the Sphinks" for aDutchie, English is easier, also because ( me born 1976, ) got English in primary school..at +/- 8 years old, and listening to pop music which is mainly in English, but I turned to Metal, but Iron Maiden and AC/DC sing in English aswell.. haha!!

10:37 I went to Turkey, 2 times, two different cities, but same regiion.. First time we had a guide Shahin.. he was duh, Turk..but spoke to the bus in Dutch..almost flawless..when he did his talk to the tourists, I raised my hand in the questionround. I sincerely complimented him on how well he spoke Dutch, and asked him if he ever went to Netherlands.. NOPE..watch tv shows? NOPE... When he spekas to people, and they say.. we come here next year, can we bring you some Dutch treats? NOPE..please bring a children's book on Dutch.. I have been reading children's books for over 10 years now..and each down time in tourism.. I read.. and each year I ask more difficult books from Dutch people who come to here and visit me, and oh yeah...see something of my beautyfull country, hahaha!! Colourfull man, but a clever one.. learnimng from the children's books, start at the base..

7:44 awesome you took it as example.. not feeling it being your fail.. That is why Dutchies won't laugh when someone truly tries to speak Dutch, but makes some mistakes.. no worries, YOU TRIED and damn..you raised respect, we know dutch is hard.. I as Dutch made some mistakes online gaming with a German group, enterred and tried to keep up with the Germans, but when making mistakes they joked amongst eachother about me in the same chat, .. I just couldn't find the right or proper words sometimes.. But also French.. they refuse to even try English.. YOU come there, YOU should speak their language..Germany aswell.. lately more and more Dutch come visit Germany and the border cities are more dialect, or even trying Dutch aswell.. like Bunde, Papenburg.. but it is quite annoying when coming to Germany, try German and get laughed at for making mistake..makes me leave the groceries on the counter and walk out..

8:52 and the Dutch brag about how less it costed instead of how expensive it was..

9:56 all of a sudden Johannes Laurenszoon Coste is erased from history...for inventing the off-set printing principle used today, whereas Gutenberg did print the first bible LETTERPRESS wise.. different technigue..this stinks.. richest inventors where in Netherlands, not in Germany then... they became a powerhouse later.. and are still.. in tech, and printingpresses.. Germany rules, theirs are the best..Detsche Grundlichkeit..( entschuldigung fur shlechte Deutsch) German printingpresses are the best.. not USA, Italy, Japan..nope.. Germany. and their worst sre still better then anything non-Germany.

8:57 exept in dictatorial USA.. they don't allow anything other then USA... they live in their own bubble.. ( they do think that Biden has actual presedential power, HAHAHAHAHAHA!!)

8:42 I also follow channel Nat's what I Reckon.. and he uses as an Aussie doijng a cooking show.. spek, which is Dutch, and is translated as bacon, but when you look in your local Albert Heijn for bacon ( to put on bread) you do find something different..

Elitists are to blame for the metric and therefor off measurements... they pushed it through with more funds so, only usa is backwards..Napoleon is to blame..bloody French again..

Zo leuk! De "regels" of ezelsbruggetjes die je uitlegt in je video zijn echt precies de dingen die ik op school gebruikte om engels te leren :)

A song in an East Flemsish dialect. The dutch guy in the "panel" litteraly says he can't understand a word of it. Give it a try, if you like. There is a letter from a woman towards the love of her life involved in this song. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGXdcn-Ofs6jeNE
