In this video, I’ll be introducing you to the two most important rules of the Dutch sentence structure. The Dutch sentence structure is quite infamous for being so annoyingly rigid but I’m here to explain to you how you can turn this structure into an advantage. The only thing that you need to understand is that the structure of the main clause repeats itself endlessly and that there are almost no exceptions to this.

Thanks everyone for watching! Are there any questions about the Dutch word order and the usage of "eindgroep"?

As a native English speaker I love a rigid sentence structure. Or shall I say I love a rigid sentence structure as a native English speaker.

ex ludo alumnus Latinō sum. benedictio structura lexis est. Word order, no matter how stupid, is amazing for someone learning it if it's predictable and rigid

Thank you, really well explained! Nice to see that German isn't the only language putting an entire novel in between a verb ;)

Hi Nout. That kitchen utensil is called "tongs" and it's used in plural as in "these tongs." "Tonsils" are in the throat (amandelen). Your videos are excellent. Thank you for helping us A1 students. Greetings from Montana, USA.

My lack of understanding regarding Dutch sentence structures are what keeping me from a beginner to intermediate Dutch speaker. So this video has really clarified things for me. Thank you.

Yes please , I would also like a video about yes and no questions. This is really helpful and you explain soooo well! You are a lifesaver!

Very helpful, thank you Nout! Open questions would be interesting to know, indeed. I am actually also wondering where "niet" should be placed in a sentence.

@DutchGo 5 жыл бұрын

You're welcome, I'm glad you found it helpful. Open vs. yes/no questions I'm considering for another video but the negation and the position of "niet" is next on the filming schedule. :-)

It usually placed at the end of what you are saying but I have struggled with the same thing because there have been times where it comes before then and it’s confusing.

@mariadebake5483 3 жыл бұрын

The place of niet in the sentence can often vary. But then the meaning of the sentence differs, the place of niet determines the meaning

Dutch reminds me of that commercial that says. “This sentence is grammatically correct, but it’s wordy and hard to read.” 😂

Thank you Nout, This video is awesome. I really enjoyed watching and learning that with you. Would you please make another video of the verb in the 1st position of yes and no question. You have got a new subscriber and please keep making these videos. Heel erg bedankt

I love your videos! Btw, the sound started being a lot better starting with this video. Whatever changed made it so much easier to listen to. Closer microphone position? More directional microphone? Less room reverb sound (even in that same room) and less sibillence (ssss sounds). Definitely better

@DutchGo 4 жыл бұрын

We upgraded the microphone some time after this video. It's all about small upgrades and improvements along the way.

Thank you! Your videos are very useful. I learned that a definite direct object (de/het/mijn/dit/dat, etc.) should come before the time in a Dutch sentence. Could your sentence be like this? Ik moet de vergadering over de economische problemen in het zuiden van Europa vanmiddag om twaalf uur organiseren. Thanks! :)

@DutchGo 4 жыл бұрын

Yes indeed, that rule is correct but it's more of an A2 rule. The sentence is grammatically correct too, but sounds a bit strange. Maybe I would say: Ik moet de vergadering over... om 12 uur vanmiddag vastleggen.
