Hey! I'm on italki because I'm interested in language learning and teaching others the languages I speak fluently. My native language is Dutch, but I also speak Swedish at a near-native level. Currently, I'm teaching Swedish and on italki I want to both get more experience in teaching Swedish and start teaching Dutch. Cheers! /Roderik

    's is only used to mean 'van' with personal names or family words that end in a, i, o, u, y, e (when pronounced as a long 'ee'). For example: Renee's boek Opa's bril It's not used when a name ends in a short 'e' or in a consonant. Instead, it becomes only an s without the apostrophe: Mariannes fiets Douwes school Martijns schoenen etc. When referring to other nouns, you wouldn't say "de auto's ruit". Rather, you'd say 'de ruit van de auto'. So no genetive with s or 's.

    Also, the reason why it directly translates to 'I am the learning' is because 'het' also is an article meaning 'the'. for example: 'the house' = 'het huis'. You could also say 'ik ben het aan het leren', where the first 'het' means it. In other words, it means different things in different situations and a direct translator usually won't understand that.

    I won't reply anymore since this is a language website but I think it's extremely sad that you're using a language forum to spread lies about things you obviously know very little about. Otherwise, have a good day :)

    I think you guys are talking about 2 different kinds of hash: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashish http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_(food) As for the food: it looks pretty tasty to me. As for the drug: it doesn't damage your brain cells, that's just propaganda from your government. Alcohol on the other hand does. I'm sure you drink a glass of wine to dinner every now and then, Jura?

    Hey! Familiarity is BEING familiar with something, familiarization is BECOMING familiar with something. Does that help?

    Hoi Victor, Het werkwoordelijk gezegde bestaat uit de werkwoorden uit de hoofdzin. In de zin "ik moet iets weten om dit vaak te begrijpen", is "om dit vaak te begrijpen" een bijzin, want om...te leidt een bijzin in ("om..te" betekent "in order to"). De hoofdzin is "ik moet iets weten". Daarom is het werkwoordelijk gezegde "moet weten". In de zin "zij begint te huilen" is het werkwoordelijk gezegde volgens mij "begint te huilen" want "te" is hier een onderdeel van het hele werkwoord "te huilen". De werkwoorden van de hele zin bij elkaar zijn daarom "begint te huilen"
