🎥 Hi guys! In this video, I teach you when you use GEEN and when NIET, and also where the place of NIET is in the sentence (because its place depends on what you are negating in the sentence).
In deze video leer ik je wanneer je GEEN en wanneer NIET gebruikt en ook waar NIET in de zin komt (want de plaats hangt af van wat je wilt ontkennen).

The position of geen and niet drove me crazy when I started to learn Dutch, I still can't give exact examples of how it is placed, but I have one thing to comment on: practice makes it (almost :p) perfect. Now I can use it almost all correct, because I have practiced a lot and the way of using it will be in your mind when you are very familiar with it

[@pradeepram13]

je video is heel heel heel mooi. Jij ook!

[@annygoncalves6625]

Really helpful video! Just loved the idea of recording in Dutch with subtitles. You're doing a great job. Just got one more subscriber 😉

[@learndutchwithkim]

Thank you a lot! That’s super nice to hear :) I hope you’ll enjoy the next ones as well!

[@QusaiQMgaming]

dank u wel heel bedank voor les

[@nancyh.3382]

I was having so much difficulty understanding when to use Geen and Niet, and after watching this video I now have a much better understanding of when to use one over the other and where to place them in sentences. I was so confused because I was seeing Niet placed almost everywhere in sentences, but now it makes so much more sense. Thank you SO much for explaining this so well! You are an awesome teacher!!!

[@montyswoodworkscrafts2232]

Hi! Loved your videos so far, could you please make a video of when to use the “e” at the end of the adjective please? Like why is lekker sometimes used as lekker”e” koffie but others as just lekker something

[@learndutchwithkim]

Hwahing CHK Hi, thank you! I’m planning to make a video about the “e” in adjectives (and also for welk(e) and ons/onze) soon! There are a couple of videos in the queue so maybe next month! :)

[@hwahing]

Dutch Language Academy thank you for taking the time to answer! Your videos have really helped me so far

[@learndutchwithkim]

Hwahing CHK that’s great to hear!!

[@demi3115]

depends on the gender of the noun ;P

[@thebestever1696]

Bedankt

[@vladimirfaybyshev8634]

Hi Kim! Kun je misschien uitleggen hoe het zit met negatie van eigennamen? "Ik ben Jan niet" of "ik ben niet Jan" of ik ben geen Jan?, Voor niet-levende zelfstandige naamwoorden lijkt mij dat geen beter op zijn plaats is. "Dit is geen Frankrijk". Toch?

[@hanyueli3147]

I also have some same books as yours in your background. Especially 'de Finale', the grammar summary in that book is quite useful

[@learndutchwithkim]

Yes, it's a great book!

[@peti826]

Hi, how big of a mistake is it if I switch the supposed position of NIET in a sentence? Will people still understand every time or is it conspicuous and ambiguous if used wrongly?

[@learndutchwithkim]

I think in almost all cases people will still understand you, unless there is an ambiguity, but don't worry! Just practice and you will do great!

[@peti826]

That's nice to hear, thank you Kim!

What about 'talen' and 'cijfers' for geen?

Ik denk dat veel Nederlanders ook soms problemen met niet en geen ervaren. Dit filmpje is dus ook geschikt voor autochtonen ;).

Ik ga MET Elise OP vakantie. Here there are two prepositions. Based on what rule should someone choose which preposition to negate?

[@learndutchwithkim]

Here you negate “met Elise”. Otherwise you get another sentence: “Elise en ik gaan niet op vakantie”

[@CuteTocaCat123]

Ik heb een vraag. Zou je me kunnen helpen? Volgens jouw voorbeeld : Het nederlands is niet makkelijk. Oké. Mag ik zeg dat "Het Nederlands is GEEN makkelijke taal" is het juist?

[@learndutchwithkim]

Ja helemaal juist!!

[@dawoodbaradie1593]

2:32 I’m confused. she says indefinite sustantive but it’s written noun. The correct one is sustantive, right?

[@learndutchwithkim]

substantive is another word for noun :)

[@marahtaha0605]

Mijn docent heb ik vraag over de negatie van deze zin want ik snap het niet zo goed :Dit is geen mooie auto .dus de negatie voor (auto)? Heel erg bedankt voor alles echt heel belangrijke informatie .

[@learndutchwithkim]

Graag gedaan! En de negatie is voor “mooie”. Het is geen mooie auto, maar een lelijke ;)

[@shyarxelil1987]

Dank u wel

[@learndutchwithkim]

Graag gedaan!

[@ynel77]

Hello and thank you for the nice happy videos :) But why did you use "Dit" for auto ? it is "de" word not "het" word !!

[@learndutchwithkim]

You're welcome! And in this sentence "dit" is a "introduction demonstrative". We can only use "dit" or "dat" for this: "Dit is mijn auto" or "dat is mijn auto". It's like in English: "This/that is my car". If the demonstrative was right before the noun, then it would be: "deze auto is van mij" (because yes, it's de auto!)

Great video, I have a question, has anyone ever proposed reform in the language so it can be more consitent when it comes to negative? There are many professors around the world who are currently on this mission. I call these professors Language Reformists. I find these ambiguities in Dutch unecessary. The people of the Royal Kingdom of the Nederlands are so industrious, I have visited your country 5 times, and I love it, but the negative form in the language is hell.

[@learndutchwithkim]

Hahaha, it is hell sometimes! It would be interesting to reform the languages, but then my job will get oo easy ;)

A sentence, that comes in very handy when you are in the Netherlands is: "Ik wil deze ezel niet kopen!"

Dutch homonyms blow my mind! 😵😵😵 "de neef"/"the nephew and "the male cousin" just like "de nicht"/"the nieces and the female cousin" Aye?! 😝😝😝 How the hell can someone like Rebecca Thompson POSSIBLY be my niece when she's only over 8 months younger than me?! 😝😝😝😝😂😂😂😂😂😂 No! She's my cousin! 😝😝😝😝 So yeah! ;) If you guys say; "Iemand is m'n neef" damn right I'll wanna ask; "Is hij de de zoon van jouw broer of jouw zus of is hij de zoon van jouw tante of jouw oom?" XD

[@learndutchwithkim]

Mr. Quercus Mischievous Wizard-Knight yes those are very weird from a foreigner’s perspective. This is also a subject that i want to elaborate on

[@mrwizzardknight]

Dutch Language Academy Oh, oh! It’s because of Latin in English “orange the colour” and “orange the colour” are the same word! XD Yeah! Dutch has Latin too! But it’s very Germanic heavy that’s why wor colour is “oranje” and wor fruit is; “sinaasappel” I think! XD That makes sense! ;) Still! Some of English homonyms can be very questionable too! ;) I.E “the bat” The only flying mammal and something that you use in sports and why the hell did we English invent a sport and call it “cricket” after the insect I don’t know! It makes no sense! 😝😝😝😝😂😂😂😂 But I’ll tell ya one thing, we English LOVE wor most popular sports and obviously football is number 1! 😂😂😂😂
