    I'm just starting! 4 weeks ago

    I always like to learn other languages and also I’ve really wanted to learn dutch ever since my first trip to Amsterdam.
    I just borrowed a book which says I could get a fair ammount of knowledge of dutch language in 3months if I study 8hous a week.

    I just started the first week section and I found the pronunciation very hard. but it’s really exciting when I imagine I could read and understand the language in 3months, I mean of course I’ll be able to read only the simplest stuff but still, the words itself look like some secret code now so It’d be really exciting just to be able to read them.

    I have quite some time to do this in 2 months ago

    So might aswell take it easy and do little by little. Should be easy enough over such a period of time.

    When my father was young, he had the oportunity to be working and living in Amesterdam. He didn’t went, because my mother didn’t wanted to, she was afraid to go to a diferent country.
    In other words, I was very close to be born dutch, hehehe.



    Not sure anymore 4 months ago

    I wanted to learn because my husband is Dutch. Now we are getting divorced, so the motivation is dwindling.

    I’ve got some books and have been going to lessons… I’m surprised at how much I know already! I know some people who can speak Africaans, but I don’t know it. Well, wish me luck!

    i taught myself for a year and enrolled in VSL. it’s fun but i’m not fluent. i need to be better at listening comprehension. i dont think i’ll ever call myself fluent. but right now i’m still in the “need help” phase. lol.



    Untitled 6 months ago

    I’m living in the netherlands now which is a good reason to learn the language. I started a dutch course 2 days ago. It’s awesome, I dig the people.
