[@Bryan-gn3cs]

Hi, I'm Dutch, funny video when you already understand all the meaning haha

[@theintrepidguide]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@MsCharria]

im dutch too!

[@comongi]

Je hebt gelijk

[@CR-vb6eq]

JustWagger I'm Afrikaans one day I will visit you and get really drunk and then you can teach me Dutch.

[@datchisan25]

I bet almost only Dutch people watch this and the true followers of this channel

[@robvoncken2565]

it sounds so good in Dutch...but indeed say it in English and it sounds EVEN MORE AWESOME

[@pruusnhanna4422]

Ik mis "fucking ants" toch wel een beetje. Da's misschien een beetje mierenneuken, maar toch.

[@afrabarentz1704]

ik mis " fat dick 3 beer" i mean wie zegt er nou eigenlijk wat heb ik aan mijn fiets hangen

[@ezandman6804]

@@afrabarentz1704 ..... sorry I don't want to be an antfucker but .... Hilaries!

[@callmetheconqueror]

I liked so much the phrase "Alsof er een engeltje over je tong piest" - Like "Ik voel alsof er een engeltje over mijn tong piest waneer ik het poffertjes eet." 👍🏻 I hope I don't dissapoint Dutchies because I am a newbie in learning.

[@theintrepidguide]

Thank you for sharing :) That's so wonderful you're learning Dutch. Well done!

[@chris210352]

Niemand hier in Canada gelooft mij, dus bedankt voor de video. Loved it!

[@rustedskelotonproductionse3687]

Hahaha!!! Ik lachte zo erg dat ik dacht dat ik doodging. En het is de manier waarop we dagelijks spreken. Hehehehe!! Wel gedaan 😂

[@sloppyprogrammer4373]

Ja, vooral dat we het dan op zo'n manier zeggen alsof we het letterlijk bedoelen. "Ben je van de trap gevallen of zo?"

[@MJ-rv5ri]

Instead of 'did you fall from the stairs' we usually say something like 'heb je gisteren de grasmaaier gekopt' or 'heb je de grasmaaier er weer overheen gehad' which means something like 'did you headbutt a lawnmower?'

[@theintrepidguide]

Thanks for sharing ;)

[@davidsleiffer8809]

Thats how the cookie crumbles.

[@davee91889]

This is gold to me!

[@theintrepidguide]

Glad you enjoyed it 😀

[@nicpeeps]

[@theintrepidguide]

[@newflowergetu8958]

Wow A mm axing Expressions. Thanks.

[@theintrepidguide]

My pleasure :)

[@jumalauta4223]

Ik heb nooit eerder gehoord van "daar kan ik geen chocola van maken" Had niet verwacht dat ik wat nieuws zou leren

[@lienbijs1205]

Die is ook wel een beetje ouderwets.

[@fishsticks6969]

the music was distracting to hear the pronunciations, but i like the presentation.

[@aletheran8590]

Translation 9 seems a bit wonky, basically it just means 'making small talk'

[@thatdutchguy2882]

Aletheran Which means talking about nothing really important.

[@Robertsson]

"wonky" hahahahahahaha

[@ernstpattynama6361]

... to shoot the breeze ... (nice English expression!!)

[@cterrell1343]

uitstekend! Dank u wel!! :D

[@SashInTheWash]

i love how they just go "The laast expression"

[@Saucyakld]

Geez, as a born Dutch woman have not heard those expressions. Maybe I was too young when we left Nederland hahaha, but now I know I can email it to my cousins and dazzle them with my not forgotten moeders taal

[@computeraddic675]

You dont learn those in school!

[@thatdutchguy2882]

Tineke Williams Those expressions have been around for donkey years m8, still are. You sure you lived here ?

[@mikabitar2945]

Donkey years? XD

[@Widdekuu91]

+theNextStepUploader Lees dan even goed, mafketel. Ze zei dat ze kort in Nederland heeft gewoond, maar waarschijnlijk te jong was om ze gehoord te hebben toen ze verhuisde. Op je 4e bijvoorbeeld, heb je die dingen nog niet gehoord. Doe es rustig.

[@rayday4644]

I think it's funny everytime a Dutch person talks 😂

[@ahmedb6228]

Misschien wel ja

[@elescharossouw428]

Ek ken nr.4 as "hy't met sy gat in die botter geval"

[@komkwam]

It always amuses me when Dutch people literally translate Dutch sayings into English, as if our sayings are the exact same thing as in the English language. lol

[@r.a.h7682]

well you should be saying the same thing, as english is ''germanic'' but it really isnt, english is full of latin words.

[@riteasrain]

Yes there's no translating it, the meaning and wonderful humour of it is lost.

[@plerpplerp5599]

Geweldig!😂👍

[@waltermessines5181]

Make one on all English expressions with Dutch in it...

[@orpheusundertheinfluence3521]

Bastante util, gracias

[@kiwidutch9778]

Daar kan ik geen chocola van maken - Daar kan ik geen touw aan vastknopen = I can't tie a rope to that = It doesn't make sense to me.

[@theintrepidguide]

haha thanks for sharing :)

[@zivatofach8853]

Very interesting

[@CharlesvanDijk-ir6bl]

'The cat is out of the bag.' It relates to the moment when the flaggelator took the cat of nine tails out of the bag to execute the flogging to a prisoner. That was the explanation during a guided tour of Fremantle prison in West Australia. I don't think idioms can ever be properly translated.

[@sylviaspencer4987]

I heard that too ...We say let the cat out of the bag ...when truth comes out about something :)

[@patiHamasaki]

Dankuwel 🙏

[@theintrepidguide]

My pleasure :) Glad you enjoyed it Patricia :)

[@testo02]

de laatste heb ik nog nooit gehoort haha

[@pacesferry]

[@ahmedb6228]

Haha hilarisch

[@bartderooij292]

Leuk!!

[@carm3leon]

i found the maker of Dora (ik heb de maker van Dora gevonden).

[@ViaNocturna85]

I think I'll just sit here and watch the cat out of the tree

[@gast128]

This is only the tip of the iceberg of dutch idioms.

[@ddissapearr4054]

Dat jullie nederlands zo moeilijk vinden het is super makkelijk

[@kucam12mischablue]

in Romanian we say - it's all Turk to me - instead of Greek. I like that.

[@theintrepidguide]

Oh really! That's so interesting. Thanks for sharing :)

[@Wilkat]

Jij kan kapot goed Nederlands! Zowiezo dat jij Nederlands bent😂

[@lienbijs1205]

Het is " sowieso".

[@waltermessines5181]

It's double Dutch to me!

[@ernstpattynama6361]

Expression #9: English equivalent: To shoot the breeze

[@annaverhaegh6712]

ben je van de trap gevallen! en de andere: heb je zwem les genomen! mooi!

[@festinahres4881]

[@willneverforgets3341]

LOL . really funny!!!!

[@8010289147]

goed als goud

[@CR-vb6eq]

We have a few of them in Afrikaans as well.

[@rainadkins4827]

Hilarious, no. Mildly amusing, yes. I did like the one about the peeing angel.

[@sylviaspencer4987]

My Dad always said that when he had a great coffee :)

[@Subosi]

First one is off... as front doors generally swing inwards in the Netherlands. it's translate closer to "Step in with the door" as the door is "falling" inwards, rather than you.

[@theintrepidguide]

Thanks Subosi :)

[@GASzROB]

Wow .. nu breekt mijn klomp maar ik heb er geen

[@cutecumber917]

I used these on a Dutch friend and he doesn't know any of them and now thinks I've gone mad...😐

[@dv396]

Yeah only old or really rich posh people use these lol

[@henkoosterink8744]

i don't believe that. These are very commen expressions.

[@henkoosterink8744]

@@dv396 Bullshit.

[@lienbijs1205]

That is simply impossible because children even learn these common expressions at school.

[@anasaboahmad4211]

Ich habe ein Frage welsche Sprache

[@atzonaftaniel4798]

9 should be small talk

[@Rosebakker5242]

Ik kan er geen touw aan vast knopen

[@omaresh1716]

Now thats some poor pa dutch, i‘m amish myself and i hardly understand one word of it.

[@kiwidutch9778]

Coz Pennsylvania Dutch is a German dialect and not a Dutch one. Dutch comes from the word: 'Diets' which was the group of languages spoken in the Netherlands and Germany (Deutsch)

[@issamkrt]

niemand zegt meer dan de helft van deze shit xD
