Are the Dutch Superstitious? | Easy Dutch 53

[@nomadgigi4051]

I like this channel, found it last week. I've been looking for a channel to relearn my Dutch for a couple of years now and find this format the most useful. I left the Netherlands as a teenager and have been in Australia for a long time now, in my 70s. I haven't spoken Dutch with anyone in many years but don't want to loose it. The main issue I have is that in many instances an English word is used now and I never know when this is so. I shall continue to listen to your channel as it's lots of fun, turns out I still understand Dutch perfectly well, not so comfortable writing it. Thank you, keep up the good work.

How could one forget the native language, though - I cannot imagine how that would be possible, unless he was younger than 10 when he left the country, and hasn’t heard the words many times / didn’t know the native language too well / hasn’t heard the words enough times for them to become part of the permanent memory... If one hears each word over 50 to 100 times, the words should become a part of one’s permanent memory - so, even if one doesn’t use the language for many years, one should still remember the words... I learned Spanish in childhood and I didn’t use it in a decade, yet I haven’t forgotten it - Spanish isn’t my native language tho, even though I am native speaker level in Spanish, and since I haven’t forgotten Spanish, I cannot imagine ever forgetting English if I would not use it for many years...

However, the word nom cannot be in someone’s name yt name, because it is related to food! All other big terms also only reflect me THE only Queen / Lady / Princess / Leader / God(dess) / Star etc, and I am the only being reflecting precious things like gold / silver / jewelry / luxury items / gemstones etc that are only meant for me! And the special pronoun U is only meant for me THE only superior / important / special being, not for oude hum’ns - all wom’n / hum’ns are the exact opposite of queen / u / princess / other big terms or special names etc, just an avrg citizen made to obey the avrg citizen’s laws and rules (as every other hum’n) and are the exact opposite of purity / superiority / radiance and other special unique qualities that such terms imply that only I THE actual Queen possess, and promoting impztz / big term misuse is beyond wng and is to be bnd, and also, wom’n / hum’ns do no belong on those coins / money / precious items / statues / paintings etc, which are only meant for me!

Thanks for these Easy Dutch videos! I've been learning Dutch vocabulary and simple sentences for a month in Memrise and Quizlet. I've tried listening closely to various speakers in Dutch videos and to me Jeroen van Heesewijk's word-initial 'g' sound is closer to English than many other Dutch speakers. Like all beginners I'm struggling with the 'g' and 'sch' sounds. What region of Nederland pronounces 'g' closest to English?

[@EasyDutch]

There isn't really a region which pronounces the g like in English... The sound [g] doesn't exist in the basic phonology of Dutch. :)

Ik heb al je video gezien en ik moet zeggen bedankt voor alles....✌✌✌

Dat dubbeltjes gelukbrengers zijn, heb ik nooit gehoord. Ik ken maar één geluksdubbeltje en dat is die van Dagobert Duck (Uncle Scrooge).

9:03 ik ben totaal niet bijgelovig maar ik erger me wel dat die kraag (van de jas) van de interviewer niet recht zit. Heb een onweerstaanbare drang om het recht te trekken.

[@jeroenvanheesewijk7290]

Geloof me, ik ook...

I think a better translation of "nuchter" would be "objective" or "realistic."

[@shoukatalilashari4255]

Hoe gaat het met jou Sar good evening

[@fabianpascalabt6353]

als er iemand straks jarig is en je zegt gefeliciteerd te vroeg, dan zal het zeker ongeluk brengen

[@fabianpascalabt6353]

1:33 ik vind het meisje echt nogal aantrekkelijk en wil graag een date met haar alleen maar voor de lol

[@EasyDutch]

In Nederland brengt dit dus niet ongeluk, maar in Duitsland en Italië (en wie weet nog welke andere landen) dan wel!

[@SamuelLanghorn]

Scary! eyeballs in lemonade?? that's how the lady with the nice glasses celebrates Friday 13 for her son. Not sure if this would be legal in most countries.

[@EasyDutch]

I'm sure those weren't real eyeballs... 😅

[@SamuelLanghorn]

@@EasyDutch I am confused! I thought Dutch people are very direct, now you are telling me that's not true?

[@EasyDutch]

@@SamuelLanghorn The lady was just speaking about fake eyeballs, like the ones you could use for Halloween as a decoration. :)
