DUTCH/FLEMISH VOWEL COMBINATIONS: Pronunciation and spelling

In previous youtube posts, I've discussed the differences between long and short vowels, both in term of pronunciation and spelling. In this article (which as always, comes with a very cool and helpful video) I'll be discussing the last, essential thing you need to know about Dutch vowels: how to combine them and how to pronounce them. Correctly of course. (I'm not that evil!)

Hey! I am in love with this channel and love the fact that you teach Belgian Dutch! That's so amazing and am glad I can learn the Flemish variant thanks to you.

[@andreasrigas6562]

It seems that different people are struggling with different combinations. My cryptonite has always been the "ui" combination haha. Now I have finally managed to get the hang of it (kind of).

Heel erg bedankt, je manier van uitleg is gemakkelijk, duidelijk en nuttig👍, door jou is mijn uitspraak veel verbeterd en ik probeer veel oefeningen te doen, de letter is een echte tragedie voor mij, maar ik denk dat ik veel oefeningen nodig hebben.

IJ: oorsprong van de lange ij Hoe is onze lange ij ontstaan? De ij bestaat eigenlijk uit twee keer een i (ii dus), waarvan de tweede i een haaltje kreeg, zodat het een j werd. Middeleeuwen: i → ii → ij Woorden als prijs en schijnen werden in de Middeleeuwen geschreven als prise en schinen. Om in de schrijftaal duidelijker aan te geven dat deze i lang moest worden uitgesproken, verdubbelde men hem: priise, sc(h)iint (‘schijnt’). Later kreeg de tweede i een haaltje (j). Dat was mede omdat er in de Middeleeuwen vaak geen punt op de i werd gezet en ii soms verward werd met de u. Vanwege die verwarring met de u raakte overigens ook de y (de i-grec) in sommige woorden in gebruik als schriftelijke weergave van een [ie]-klank. Het woord wijf (in de Middeleeuwen uitgesproken als [wief]) kon geschreven worden als wif, wiif, wyf en wief. In de loop van de zestiende eeuw veranderde de uitspraak van de ij: van [ie] naar [ei].

5:08 It is "o with Umlaut", Nout, not with "trema". German, along with Swedish, has no "o with trema", like "coöperatie", etc.

Nout...have you a video about the vowel of [ ɲ ] as in "Vereenigde Oost-indische Compagnie (VOC)", "Spanje", "Oranje"? Thank you.

[@jaewoolee2669]

I finally understand this thank you I wanna cry. I have one question though, so the dutch ij sound, sounds like to me, as if it's a combination of the american big A sound (as in Cat,Bat) + long e sound in its tongue position, am I getting it right?

[@DutchGo]

Haha, you're welcome. The sound as you describe it makes sense in my mind but I would say that it is also like the vowels in the words ''say, hey, they, clay'' but with the tongue a bit more down, leaving a bit more space between the palladium and the tongue. This is for the Flemish variation. Does that make sense? Do bear in mind that in the Dutch variation, you would leave even more space between tongue and palladium.

[@jaewoolee2669]

@@DutchGo thank you very much for a kind answer. Yes I think I understood it's not for sure till a native speaker approves it tho :p but still your explanations on the video and the comment section helped me so much to understand about these difficult vowel sounds. Thanks again and hope you stay healthy!^^

[@DutchGo]

@@jaewoolee2669 Thank you and you're very welcome. Hope you stay safe and healthy too!

[@user-hj4lg4ox6l]

Sorry to ask, so there are 7 possible combinations. Is "ie" in "vier" also can be included in dutch/flemish diphthong?

[@matthewdavis9437]

The comparison of the ij or ei sound to ey of hey is quite inaccurate. It just sounds like you're saying hij. If someone said "hey" like that in English, most people would note a strong foreign accent.

[@inesgranjogarcia1115]

Por favor, podia fazer este vídeo em Português ? Tenho grande dificuldade em escrever e pronunciar ... obrigada

[@DutchGo]

Talvez, já fiz um video em PT, talvez farei mais no futuro mas para o momento não é uma prioridade (é sempre uma questão do tempo, não é? :))

[@isabelabonfim9451]

Olá, Nout! Estou estudando holandês pelo seu canal. Muito obrigada pelos seus vídeos, é muito difícil encontrar canais em holandês da Bélgica. E agora vi que você também fala português. Muito legal! Parabéns pelo canal!

[@LetrasEsFr]

So "EU" Dutch is similar to French.

[@reponsengogarugeyo3745]

Auto?? Oud??

[@rvdb8876]

We weten hoe "eu" uitgesproken wordt, zoals in "leuk". Ook hoe "ui" uitgesproken wordt, zoals in "ajuin". Maar waarom spreken Nederlanders het woord "leukemie" dan uit als "luikemie"?
