In this class, I teach you a couple of typical Dutch sounds and we learn the pronunciation of seven very famous Dutch words: Gouda, Heineken, KLM, Schiphol, Amsterdam, Delfts Blauw & Van Gogh. After this class, you will NEVER mispronounce them again and you will know the alphabet!

"do you wear wooden shoes" really got me 😂 loving these videos and finding them helpful, espicialy this one, I think it's important to learn the alphabet first so I know the sounds to make when I see the words, really helps

[@ronaldv.7931]

As a complete beginner, Dutch looks like a mixture of English, German and some alien language in which they use letters and sounds randomly.

[@questioning_the_universe]

Yeah about right i say dutch is just german if german knew how to chill

Dank je wel, Kim! Ik kom uit Amerika en ik woon in Oregon. Mijn grootouders kwamen uit Nederland en mijn moeder spreekt Nederlands, maar ik niet. Nu studeer ik. De “ui” is erg moeilijk voor mij.

[@FrozenMermaid666]

The Dutch words ijzer / ijzerwaren and ijs / ijsje / ijsco / ijslaag / ijsmassa / ijsveld start with IJ, and I think I saw a few more words with IJ - Dutch pronunciation is very easy, like English pronunciation, and the only words that are a bit challenging are a few words such as geheugen, because a word such as this one has many similar letters in the same word, kinda like the English word rural, so these are a bit harder to say, but not extremely hard tho, and definitely not impossible, they just require a bit more effort, so to speak, but the CH and the G aren’t the exact same sound tho, because G is a G-controlled H-like sound (approximant of H controlled by G aka a sound that’s right between G and H or a mix of G and H) and CH is a K-controlled H-like sound (approximant of H controlled by C or K aka a sound that’s right between K and H or like a mix of both) despite them being quite similar, but one can definitely hear the difference in Welsh words that start with CH because the K sound becomes more obvious when it’s in the beginning of a word, because CH also exists in Welsh, which kinda reminds of Dutch a bit, because of this sound and because it has a similar intonation / vibe etc and some words have similar letter combinations, such as afon / bedwen / helygen / derwen / mynd / nest / lolfa / telyn or delyn etc, while in the middle of the word they sound almost the same, so most cannot tell the difference between G and CH as they are usually in the middle of the words or at the end, and I’m not sure if Dutch has words that start with CH, because so far I have only seen words starting with SCH, but not CH!

[@fwengsolutions]

I wonder why? !

[@ishmetmuhibb590]

​@fwengsolutions because indonesian language is influenced by the dutch, that's why the pronunciation is similar

Adorable videos! I am already binge-watching ever since this morning. One thing that has always puzzled me ( excuse my ignorance or not awareness of ), but I was wondering if there are materials or resources for learning and practicing English phonics, phonetics, and pronunciation. Something like we learn English using transcription, just in this case for Dutch. That would be of great help. Thanks a lot! Keep up the good work! I strongly believe this channel needs to reach more people!

Hi Kim, I really like your Dutch learning videos and I will surely recommend your channel to my friends who are also learning Dutch! I think you are very creative to teach us the Dutch sounds by using the typical Dutch words! I think "negenennegentig" is really hard to pronounce, I always hear it from the TV commercials.

Thank you! I’m happy to hear that! Good luck :)🍀

And 888? Achthonderdachtentachtig?

[@zakariaelkhachia1533]

4:43 Hilarious 😁 "Jongen" is the one the trickiest for me (even in German Junge). I believe it's the "ng" sound combined with the following "en". Anyhow, you got yourself a subscriber to the premium course! Veel dank!

Growing up in South Africa, I've become familiar with Afrikaans. They say the "UI" sound slightly differently. So this is very difficult for me to get! I am surprised at how much I still struggle with HUIS or TUIN.

[@Mika-vr4bt]

Omschrijven was a word I've found awful to pronounce, but really any word with g or ch I struggle with. I feel I always have to raise my voice to get the correct sound, and it tends to sound really forced when I say it, but perhaps it'll get a little easier saying it quietly with more practice. Ui also feels like such a difficult sound to pronounce for me!

[@sachinkashyap9672]

Being level 0 in Dutch I have problems pronouncing most Dutch words that have more than 1 syllable. However, if I look at your 7 famous Dutch words Schiphol seems to be the hardest to pronounce ( for me). The S is followed by the hard ch and then the p is followed by the h ( usually the 'f' sound in English). It does not flow naturally for me. I was surprised that the Dutch uu and the formal u have the same sharp "u" sound as in French. As a French-Canadian, I was happy to see (hear) that!

[@hongry-life]

[@noray4438]

Even if I listen to the "ui" sound on repeat, I still can't say it! My Dutch partner tells me to practice as much as I can and I still struggle. And ui is used in a lot of things - ui for onion (I hate onions so "zonder ui" is heel belangrijk!), uil, huis, muis and these are basic words that I can't pronounce correctly. I'm fluent in English, Indonesian/Bahasa Malay, Japanese, some Arabic (so the "g/ch" is ok with me) and Finnish (so no problems with "r" even though my native languages are primarily from Asia) but that "ui" is tricky. Anyone know what is the closest English sound for "ui" or in the languages I mentioned above?

[@learndutchwithkim]

Yes the ui is super hard. There are some nice videos on KZbin with instructions how to make the ui, maybe you can find them under “uitspraak ui” or something like that!
