Dutch is very similar to english, same grammar for the most part, and some words straight up pronounced the same and look the same

@@jos7006 It is. The grammar and pronounce is difficult for people who doesn’t speak Dutch

Hahaha this

@@jos7006 it is easy to understand and read, but it is actually harder to pronounce and understand the grammar. The words are similar enough, especially when read. But to actually remember and pronounce correctly and knowing the conjugations and grammar, it is more difficult than people realize.

Omg it WOULD! When we’re they introduced tho? I’ve used duolingo since November and I’ve always had hearts

They still don’t have the hearts system in the web app

You can also disable the heart system by creating a "classroom" on Duolingo and inviting yourself as a student

I jokingly added Klingon (and then deleted it) but I saw that it was going to give me unlimited hearts WITHOUT Duolingo Plus. 😭😅

dammit so you’re telling me there was a time BEFORE that?? crap. i wish they had kept it without the damn hearts cause my anxiety goes 📈📉📈📉📈📉📈 even if i know the right answer. also, sometimes there’s a mistake in the system and you lose a heart and like…no and the duolingo plus is way too expensive >_>

I’m currently taking a college elementary German class and some (very few) words, I was able to somewhat deduced what the sentence was. Like woman, boy, child. I have a freund who’s from the Netherlands and it’s kinda fun talking to her in a language that is similar to hers. I wish there more languages available to learn where I am tho.

@@anthonyfell Wow, that sounds cool. I always appreciate it when people study new languages (especially German is often called hard). I'm just to dumb for grammer to be honest. That's why I stick with English^^ Where are you from? And which languages would you like to learn?^^

@@oppenbot1717 ah yeah, but any language can be hard. Especially if the language you’re learning is not one of major languages around you. I‘m from Southern California. Tbh there’s not a whole lot of languages to learn/available to learn. There’s Spanish, (mainly) Mandarin Chinese, some French, very little Italian, very little Korean (got to go somewhere like LA for that.) some Japanese (where I’m in there’s only 1 or 2 classes available.) and one German class from only two out of three colleges around me and we’re losing the better professor. Dutch isn’t available, Polish, Russian, any other language (at the community college level that is) is not available to learn. I’ve taken Spanish a long time ago I need to come back and learn again. (There’s a lot of Spanish speakers where I‘m at.) I need to continue learning ASL because my sister is Deaf. Right now, I‘m just taking Deutsch (German) and having fun with it. Spanish was very easy for me. German is a very close 2nd place to it being hard to learn. ASL was pretty damn hard due to me having to use my non dominant hand (right hand is kinda damaged.) and the fact it‘s solely visual. Non sign language based languages are rather easier to learn in general. I‘ve tried learning Japanese and maybe I‘ll take an official class, but it‘s very difficult to me. Dutch seems similar so I kinda want to pick it up as well. I want to learn German mainly that I want to experience a different country and culture from my own and hopefully live there. Also wouldn’t hurt to be the translator for when my family and I go on a family trip over there. What about you? What’s your journey with languages? Edit: since you mentioned you speak German, how do you think of English grammar or speaking/writing it?

@@SnoBlobber prob learn like the masculine feminine and neuter system, like for example ‘a’ can translate into 3 things. Eine (F) Einen (M) Ein (N). Once you learn the whole German system, everything else is a piece of cake.

@@SnoBlobber I'd say: -Learn the most common words first -KZfaq Videos with the most common sentences -Don't focus too much in grammar (In the beginning) -Try to read as many beginner Texts as you want/need -Watch Movies and Series in German --At first with subtitles in your Native language. (That way you get more familiar with the sound of the language) --Move to german Subs ONLY once completly comfortable with reading -Play games in a german Server where you can write with multiple people. There are sometimes guys who are interrested in texting with foreigners -Finding people to speak with would be perfect -If you do find someone don't worry too much about using the right grammar and articles. It is most important to get comfortable with speaking a language that is completly foreign to you. If you want more tips, or someone to talk to right now, I am here. Viel Erfolg 👍🏻

@@ericthered2963 thank you!! :D

"Appelsina" in dutch, the word for orange, literally meant "Apple from China". It's the same in a few other languages.

@@YuliaLinderoth the dutch word for orange is "sinaasappel"

@@benteelgersma9303 Ah yes sorry I forgot to add it was historical dutch. But etymologically it's the same. :)

Adding some extra info just for fun: "De sinaasappel komt oorspronkelijk uit China (in de oude vorm: Sina), waar ook de naam naar verwijst. In het Vroegnieuwnederlands komt "appel sina" voor, in het Nieuwnederlands "appelsien".[2][3] Vanuit Nederland werd vanaf de 18e eeuw de sinaasappel verspreid over Noord-Europa. Hierdoor komt het dat de Nederlandse naam appelsien door andere talen overgenomen is zoals in het Duits ("Apfelsine"), het Zweeds ("apelsin"), en Deens en Noors ("appelsin"). In andere talen zoals Roemeens ("Portocal"), Turks ("Portakal"), Bulgaars ("портокал" portokal), Grieks ("πορτοκάλι" portokáli), Perzisch ("پرتقال" porteqāl) en Arabisch ("برتقال" burtuqāl) wordt de vrucht naar Portugal genoemd, dat in de 15e eeuw als eerste land sinaasappels uit China importeerde."

@@benteelgersma9303 Sinasappel Sinas=Sino=China. So if you translate that is literally means China's Apple.
