I'm a 17 year old from Sweden. I've studied Dutch for a short while but need someone to actually write/talk to in the language in order to progress further. I'm looking for anyone who can teach me Dutch and could use my Swedish .

    Tack så mycket, Henriette! Jag hör av mig ifall jag stöter på något som jag inte förstår! Använder Duolingo vid sidan av Rosetta Stone och är väldigt nöjd än så länge. Mycket bra sida, i synnerhet med tanke på att det är gratis!

     

    Ashley, i haven't studied much Dutch lately i'm afraid because a lot of stuff in school and life in general happened, but i'm trying to start again. For me Rosetta Stone has provided me with a good language core but i suppose there are other ways to achieve this, for instance Assimil which i have heard a lot of positive things about. Then i'm using Duolingo when i have time to improve my vocabulary and i strongly recomend it. It's free, easy to use and very helpful. I also watch youtube videos in Dutch to improve my listening comprehension (it's a wonderful feeling once you finally begin to essentially understand what is being said) and read news online, mainly www.metronieuws.nl. Hope everything is going well with your Dutch learning!

    Thanks alot everyone! :) I will definately let you know if i struggle with grammar or anything, thank you very much for the offer! And about Assimil: i've heard about it but have never used it. Right now i'm on Rosetta Stone Dutch CD 3, what are the pros and cons of Assimil in your opinion? When it comes to speaking from day one i agree that it is the best way of learning, problem is that for me, being a Swede in Sweden, it's pretty hard to actually do it. Any suggestions on how to actually start speaking?

     

    Once again, thank you everyone, i really appriciate the help!

    Språk

    Hallå hallå allihopa!
    Idag jag pratar jag om språk (/idag ska jag prata om språk). Jag älskar språk. De är grund av liv (i'm not sure what you're trying to say here. If you're trying to say that languages are the foundation of life this would be a better way to say it: "De är grunden för allt liv"). Där är Det finns ungefär 7,000 språk i världen. Men, många ska (in swedish, "ska" is sometimes used as "should" when talking about different people than yourself, or things. Therefore "många kommer att dö" or "många håller på att dö" (which means, many are dying) would be better, even though it's not really gramatically incorrect)  dö. Vi kan stoppa den det. Jag hörde också att engelska kan bli en ett officielt språk av i Sverige. Jag gillar inte detta. spanska brukade vara en ett stort språk av i världen. Den det är stilla det fortfarande men inte så stort. Engelska är det. Jag tror att det kan ändras igen. Kanske ryska, eller kineska? Jag hoppas detta händer därför att många inne i Amerika tänka tycker att de kan passa med Engelska. Någon man kan lära sig ett språk. Du har ett försök en chans. Amerika märker inte att språk är viktigt. Vår ställning i världen minskar varje dag. Människor i Kina kan talar 2,3 eller mer fler ("mer" is used when speaking about amount or volume, like "mer vatten". "Fler" is used when something is measured in numbers, like "fler bilar") språk. Vi kan bidra till den det.
    Tack så mycket, vi ses.
    -Ian

     

    Not bad! Just try to distinguish between "den" and "det". Both are used as "that" and which one you use depends on the gender of the word you are referring to (en/ett), but when you're referring to something you've previously described ("Månge ska dö") and therefore has no gender, you use "det" too ("Vi kan stoppa det", referring to what you described in your previous sentence). Good luck with your Swedish studies!

    Thanks a lot! :) I've used "dutchgrammar.com" sometimes before when finding things in the language that didn't make sense to me, like adjectice conjugation, but as you say it's a bit difficult sometimes. I will definately check out the YouTube-channels and "Sprookjes", since i need to work a lot on my listening comprehension! And i'll give bol.com a look too, since i've been thinking about buying a book in Dutch. Once again, thank you for the great reply and useful links, i will put them to good use!

    Help, how should i start improving my Dutch?

    Hello, i'm learning Dutch and just came across this site which i belive will be of great help in my studies. The problem is that i have no idea where to start. My Dutch is still <em>extremely</em> basic, so i don't know if finding a teacher is the way to go just yet. But on the other hand there doesn't seem to be too many Dutch speakers who are also interested in learning Swedish. In short, i have no idea how to proceed. Any suggestions you might have would be appriciated :)

    Hey! I just joined but i'm asking myself the same question. My Dutch is still absolutely terrible so i think that a group of some sort would be perfect to improve my next to non-existent skills. If anyone finds out anything about the matter please inform me, because i'd love to join a group of some sort!

    Mijn eerste "Notebook Entry" Hallo! Ik heet Axel en ik kom uit Zweden. Ik heb ongeveer vier of vijf maanden nederlands gestudeert thuis op mijn computer met Rosetta Stone, maar ik spreek het nog heel slecht. Daarom heb ik vandaag gezocht een site waar ik kan leren meer en ten slotte heb ik dit gevonden. Ooit zal ik naar Nederlands gaan en ik wil graag daar studeren aan een universiteit, maar eerst moet ik beter nederlands spreken. Dank u voor het lezen, het spijt me dat mijn nederlands zo slecht is.

    en bil/ ett hus

    Min pappa har en bil. Jag har också en bil. Vi har olika bilar. Färgerna är olika. Min pappa har en grön bil och jag har en blå bil.
    Min mamma ska köpa en ny bil. Hon skulle vilja välja en blå bil eftersom blå är hennes favoritfärg. Vi ska ha likadana bilar. Men hennes är större än min.

    Jasper har ett blått hus. Lisa har ett rött hus. Hans hus är gammalt och hennes hus är nytt. De har olika hus. Det blå huset ligger brevid det röda huset.
