Learn Dutch - Dutch in Three Minutes - Numbers 11-100 

Thank you for this! After I had become quite fluent in German, I decided to give Dutch a go. And the course that I was learning from taught us to pronounce "v" as "f," just as it is in German. So, I was quite surprised when she pronounced "v" in the same way that it is pronounced in English.

is the lost link between german and english, for sure

For swedes it sounds like some mix of german, english, danish, swedish and with a hint of french sometimes🤔 I can understand quit a lot just by beeing a speaker of swedish (understanding danish and norweegian good) and english cause there’s much that is similar to english. And just by speaking swedish and english i’m able to understand a lot of german. Okay, i have an extremly minor knowledge in german and dutch and afrikaans cause i have studied it a little at home by myself. But with that i van understand a lot if they don’t speak to fast and if it doesn’t get to wierd words. But the fast bit is a problem with ALL languages cause where i’m from we speak very slowly and we like drag out the words with a lot of diftongs and ”triftongs”. (Blekinge) So just going to another part of my own country i have to be very alert when listening cause others speak fast. And i have also to tjink about not using to much dialectal words cause otherwise the ones i talk to would look like ”uuh?”

Minerdude949 She says it really hard, we don't say it like her. She does it for the video

just pretend like ure clearing ur throat

If you can't pronounce it deep in the throat, try pronouncing it more in your mouth, but make sure it's hard. That works too.

@@lottem4063 did we really need to learn number until 1million?😂😥

Ben je Nederlands dan, zoals ik?

omar shareef No one knows, Not even when you are Dutch

Lotte M true

I don't know what you mean, could you give an example?

Quinten Althues Like when she says, Vier and Vijf, it sounds more like v. And when she says Veertig and Vijftig, it sounds more like f.

its an exception. thats just how it is

That's a really good question and to tell you the truth...nobody really knows for sure where that -t comes from. I checked the web and one of the reasons could be that in older days that -t meant something as 'ten'.

I kinda agree. i think "Achtig" would be a better translation, but it would sound weird.

HonderdVijfeenZeventig. Not sure how to explain the pronounciations.

achtig is already a word in dutch so i guess thats why

sometimes there are acceptions, especially when it is at the start or end of a word

Melerence Blog 😂😉 did you study hard? heb je hard geleerd?

prof gianni Ich bin auch schlecht

Deutsch and Dutch come from the same word. But “Deutsch” is german for “german”, and “Dutch” is English for “English” :pp. In Dutch we call our language “Nederlands” :DD

Twintig

T-v-n-tag

Or the french r if you live more in the south of the Netherlands, like Brabant

Common dutch pronounces V as F, but people from the south pronounces it as V. I think she should have mentioned that, as in Holland where many people go they would say 'F' not 'V'. I hope this helps.

Just a little different right?

Heb je dat met opzet letterlijk vertaald?

Hi Marco, thanks for the comment, :) Difficult to explain but here you go: 1. Dutch is the first language in Belgium, Netherlands and Suriname, while German is the first language in Germany and Austria. 2. German pronunciation, for some letters, uses aspiration, whereas Dutch does not, e.g. for the letter K. 3. German has got more complicated declensions and subjunctive tense, while Dutch is perceived as simpler. 4. German has got four cases, while Dutch has one rudimentary case. Best of luck! :)
