Dutch Lesson #1
by Jane L. (Age: 14)
copyright 11-28-2005


Age Rating: 1 to 127

 
Hehe I know that I'm not a Dutch person but at least I've been there for about 3 months and went to school. (International but still! They teach Dutch to us!!)
Okay. Lets start!!

Dag: Its old Dutch. Not much people use it anymore. At least for hello. I think they still use it for bye... It can mean hello or bye.
Hallo: You guessed it! Hello~
ik: I
nul: zero
een: one
twee: two
drie: three
vier: four but i'm not sure if this is the right spelling
vift five but I'm sure this isn't the right spelling
zes six
zeven seven
acht eight
negen nine
tien ten
nee no
ja yes

Note:
J in the Dutch alpabet is pronounced as y. So that means ja is pronounced ya.
The letter g is EXTEMELY hard to pronounce. I can't even prounounce it. You have to make the sound with your throat. And it sorta sounds like the sound when you spit on the ground. Like Gah poo. Only I mean the gah part.
ALSO!! E is prounounced as A so... go figure.
I think the v is pronounced as f.

Cool! I started out my Japanese lessons with greetings and the like. In the Japanese language, Es are As, As are long As, and they have no "th". If you listen to a Japanese singer singing in English, you might hear him or her say "zat" in place of "that". Only a handful of Japanese singers have perfect English, Hikaru Utada is one of them but she was born and grew up in the US. Anyway, I like this idea! A few more greetings would be cool, I like to say "hello" and "goodbye" in a few different languages just to perplex people so they ask, "What's that mean?" :) I hope to see more soon! Good work, keep it coming!
