It's a thread to Learn Dutch. Not talk dutch. At least translate your text next time.

He said:

Watskeburt is a mess up of Wat is er gebeurt? Which means: What has happened?

Grappig idee, eens zien hoe dat verloopt.
Funny idea, let's see how it turns out.

"Verloopt" Can be translated in a few ways. But turns out seems to be the most appropriate translation.

Okay, so question: When you're translating English to Dutch, would it always have the same number of words? Ex.Would "When you're translating English to Dutch, would it always have the same nu,ber of words?" have 15 words in Dutch too?

Jordy
05-25-2005, 10:27 AM
Well not always. In many cases it has. In long sentences it will change though because we have a pretty strange grammar. I'll make the sentence again in english to make you see what the words mean in Dutch.

(translated)
Wanneer je engels naar nederlands vertaald, heeft het dan altijd het zelfde aantal woorden?
(word meaning)
When you english to dutch translate, does it (dan = a grammer add it means 'then' in english ) always the same amount words.

As you see the grammer from a direct translation from dutch to english sucks.

i agree, dutch is supposed to be the most difficult language in the world (or so i heard). if you try to learn it to someone or learn it yourself you should start with words and work yourself up

in that case it will be alot easier to learn


p.s. also remember that you will only see how to write dutch words, not speak it, that is different from writing

Jordy
05-25-2005, 01:06 PM
Hallo = Hello
Doei = Bye
Goede middag = Good Afternoon
Goede avond = Good Evening
Goede nacht = Good Night
Goede morgen = Good Morning

Can't think of anything else at the moment so here are a few sentences.

Mijn naam is XXX = My name is XXX
Hoe heet jij? = What's your name?

Ik ben XX jaar oud = I'm XX years old
Hoe oud ben jij? = How old are you?

Ik kom uit amerika = I'm from America
Waar kom jij vandaan? = Where are you from?

Ik heb twee broers = I have two brothers
Heb jij een broer? = Do you have a brother?

Yo yo yo! WATSKEBURT!


Props voor de heist rocker en de watskebuuurt
Watskebizzy bizzle rob robber
Mensen praten serieus maar ze weten van geen ene kaaaaankermoer watskeburt
Maar dr gebeurt veel serieus
Komen die vocalen nog of moet ik beginnen

REFREIN:
Je bent een sjembek dat zeurt
Maar je weet niet watskeburt, watskeburt, watskeburt
Je bent een MC dat front
Maar je komt niet tot de grond, tot de grond, tot de grond
Je bent een MC met crown
Maar je weet niet wat is nou, wat is nou, wat is nou
Je bent een sjembek zonder klauw
En je bent niet 'bout it 'bout, 'bout it 'bout, 'bout it 'bout

*ok vieze freddy is aandeburt*

Vieze Freddy, alsof je dat niet wist
En ik drink tot de motherfucking fles leeg is
Heb pas doekoe als ik bierflesjes inwissel
Dan ben ik pas stang yo uhh, fo' shizzle
Je lacht maar ik maak hier geen motherfucking grappen
Pus uit mn pik je kan een lauw biertje tappen
Staat te spacen, maar ik ben niet van Star Trek
Ook geen bhustabust maar ik breek wel je nek *ehehehehehe*
Komt alleen uit m'n achterste
Moeders met dochters ze verachten me
Ben van baksteen. alsof je dat niet ruikt
Want de een is dik en de ander gebruikt
Ik ben tuig, van de eerste klasse
En je wast je handen al tijdens het plassen
Kijk me aan, je weet precies hoe laat het is
Baksteen, de rest is geschiedenis

[REFREIN]

Wat is niau krauw watskeburt in de schuur
Is bij jouw alles rustig of gezeur met de buur?
Of zijn het biertjes voor gratis of gewoon pleurisduur
En ben je 'bout it bout it of een treurig figuur
Voor alle vrouwen en chickies, van Joure tot Maastrikkie
Heb die vouwen in m'n dickies yo we houden het jiggy
'bout it bout it net als een gek met al dat goud in m'n mikkie
Twee gezichten een formule als Lauda en Niki

[REFREIN]

Watser, watser, watser, watser
Watser met jou ouwe?
Keeenker keeeenker je staat te spacen
Serieus gek wat praat je met mij man keeeeenker
Je praat maar je weet niet eens watser met jou
Je weet niet eens watser met mij maar watser met jou ouwe
Keenker keenker
mensen zijn aan de crack tegenwoordig, serieus
Ik liep laatst door het centraal
komt er een junkie naar me toe voor een euro
*euro, keeenker een euro?*
Ik zeg hier heb je twintig cent, zegt-ie nee hoef je niet
Dus ik zeg, ja ja is goed ik ken jou ik ken jou
Je komt uit Noord
- uhh ja ik kom uit Noord hoe weet je dat hoe weet je dat
Zeg ik ja ik ken je moeder ik heb m'n krantenwijk voor dr bezorgt
- Uhh m'n moeder m'n moeder? Ik heb haar al 25 jaar niet gezien
Dus ik zeg fuck jou man ik verkoop dr crack stomme slet
Kanker kanker kanker junkies op het centraal
Serieus, enigste vette plek van centraal is de fucking pizzahut
En uhh en en en en en de meeting point maar kanker die is dicht
In ieder geval centraal is een baas, vieze Freddy is een baas,
baksteen is een baas, heist rocker is een baas.

i agree, dutch is supposed to be the most difficult language in the world (or so i heard).

On the contrary. Dutch is one of the easiest Latin-based languages in the world. I teach Dutch at a professional language centre and in my experience, my students find it relatively straightforward.

Initially, the structure of Dutch sentences seems odd, though once you look into it, there is a clear structure, which once you've grasped becomes easier. There is a relatively low amount of grammatical exceptions.

Verbs are probably the easiest of all languages, childsplay or as they say in Dutch: 'A child can do the laundry....'

I've been learning languages for about 15 years now, trust me when I say that Dutch is a lot easier than most other languages.

@Dreams: Dutch isn't exactly a mix of German and English, but they are all Germanian languages. There's a certain dialect in Holland called 'Twents'. It's strange but even if you can't speak German, if you speak Twents to a German person who lives near the Holland-Germany border they'll understand you.

once I heard the word "s'chomele", what means that ?


Also I wanna know what means in dutch " I pwn you"

Voynich
06-07-2005, 09:52 AM
For the first word: you mean "schommelen" which means like "rocking" like in a rocking chair or "swinging" like on a rope or swing OR "chocomel" which is just "chocolate milk"?

Edit: looking at your word again..I think you mean "schommelen"

Second ...well..there is no dutch translation for pwn. So it would just be "Ik pwn jou"

~Akuma
06-07-2005, 10:02 AM
yeah thats the word that I ment...thx a lot

and thx for the other one...

Jordy
06-07-2005, 10:38 AM
Akuma I'd say if some says I pwn you.

I'd translate it to "Ik heb je toegeëigend" Its rather hard to say ;)

But "I pwn you" doesn't mike you OWN something..

Because in the "I own you" way it would be "Ik bezit jou"

It rains today -> It is raining today.
"It's dry today" is not an expression a Briton would use.
"Are you going to work" is more common.
I have a day off -> I have the day off.
I have to work tomorrow again -> I have to work again tomorrow.

Where is the closest bus stop -> Where is the nearest busstop?
How do I come there by car -> How do I get there by car?

Dutch is a sucky language to learn. The basics are not that hard to understand, but some stuff just doesn't make sense. Some rules have exceptions that have exceptions that have exceptions. In newspapers and such, certain words are also put together ("made up" if you will) and played with.

That's why Dutch is listed as one of the hardest languages in the world to learn. Go us :PApparently English has the same problems, but even worse, so it seems to be one of the toughest second-languages there is.

Of course, how good you are at learning a particular language depends which ones (and how many) you already know. I know a guy who already spoke English and German, and when I got him interested in Dutch he picked it up faster than I did.

If i know a little bit of italian then will it help out to learn the dutch language ,as all these are European languages.It might help a bit, but Italian and Dutch are from different language familes. Italian is a Romance language (descended from Latin), while Dutch is a Germanic language.

To be honest, knowing English will probably help you more than knowing Italian will, at least with Dutch.

(yes, i'm dutch too, and willing to participate in this)

something fun for people who want to listen to dutch:

normally i'd say "there cannot be crap without rap", but with this song, i want to make a difference:
Marco Borsato is the representative for War Child in the Netherlands, and he has made a song called "Wat zou je doen" ("What would you do"), now there is this rapper, called Ali B, who sang this with him...

http://www.xs4all.nl/~rschot/joko/marcoali.mp3

just ask me for a translation (if you want), and i'll be glad to make it...

(or just ask for more songs if you'd like :D)


ps: go find out whether it's "pannenkoeken" or "Pannekoeken" (pancakes)
then you'll see it gets even more difficult after each 4 years...

If you're german, Dutch shouldn't be so hard. Prenounce things is hard.
Basic stuff:

Hi - Hoi
Hello - Hallo
How are you doing - Hoe gaat het [met je]
How old are you - Hoe oud ben je
Where do you live - Waar woon je
What is your name - Wat is je naam/hoe heet je
What are you doing - Wat doe je/ ben je aan het doen
I love you - ik hou van je [van means from]


Emotions and other:

Hug/cuddle - knuffel/knuffelen
Kiss - kus
Smile - lach
Cry - huil
Blush - bloos
Angry - boos
Mad - kwaad
Tired - moe
Happy - blij/gelukkig
Unhappy - niet blij/ongelukkig
Jealous - jaloers
Curious - nieuwsgierig
Nervous - zenuwachtig
Sad - verdrietig/triest

Dutch *is* extremely difficult to learn. Our spelling is messed up and they completely change the rules every 10 years ^^

There used to be a huge set of rules for words like "pennenzak" telling us whether it should be "pennezak" or "pennenzak" (or like someone mentioned earlier: "pannekoek" or "pannenkoek") and they changed all of them completely a few years ago, and I think it changed again a few months ago... So even I can't keep up with the messed up logic of our spelling rules ^^

Putting that aside, our verbs seem to be quite difficult as well (the infamous DT-rule), it's so bad that a lot of dutch/belgian ppl I know don't even know how to properly conjugate Dutch verbs, even if it's their native language. That's of course unacceptable, and I get agitated every time when I see someone commiting what I would call "A crime against Dutch." And since I'm pretty sure loads of the dutch people here make the same mistakes I wrote a comprehensive HowTo:
THEORIE:
1) kijk of uw werkwoord op "-den" eindigt of op iets anders, als het op iets anders eindigt kunt ge die dt al rustig vergeten
vb: lopen => "hij loopt", NOOIT "hij loopdt"

2) kijk naar uw tijd: in een verleden tijd kan uw uitgang NOOIT DT zijn, ook voltooide deelwoorden krijgen nooit DT
vb: branden => het heeft gebrand

3) is uw werkwoord tegenwoordig en eindigt het op "-den" dan zitten we in een tricky geval.. dan moeten we gaan kijken naar de persoon die het werkwoord uitvoert. Is dat "jij", "je", "hij", "het", [vul hier eender welk persoonlijk voornaamwoord voor de 2de of 3de persoon enkelvoud in] dan krijgen we DT.
Opgelet! als "jij" achter het werkwoord staat komt er geen T bij, dan blijft het gewoon D
vb: doden => "hij doodt" MAAR "dood je"


Praktijk
stel we willen zeggen:
"hij brand"?" een dvd voor mij"
Het eerste dat je dan doet is uiteraard weer kijken of we een werkwoord op "-den" hebben en of we in de tegenwoordige tijd bezig zijn. Dat is hier het geval en we zouden hier eventueel DT kunnen krijgen.
Nu vervang je het werkwoord op "-den" door een willekeurig ander werkwoord dat niet op "-den" eindigt (ik neem meestal "lopen", "koken" of "spelen") en we zeggen:
"hij 'kookt' een dvd voor mij"
we horen een "t", dus bij de "d" die er al stond (omdat we een werkwoord op "-den" hadden) komt een "t"

oplosing: "hij brandt een dvd voor mij"
Verander systematisch al uw probleemgevallen door een eenvoudig werkwoord waarbij geen twijfel mogelijk is, en je hoort of er dt moet staan of gewoon t

extra voorbeeld:

"brand"?" je een dvd voor mij?"
we vervangen weer "branden" door "koken" en krijgen:

"kook je een dvd voor mij?"
=> we horen geen "t", het is dus:
"brand je een dvd voor mij?"

als iedereen dat systematisch doet, maakt niemand hier ooit nog een dt-fout

That's of course unacceptable, and I get agitated every time when I see someone commiting what I would call "A crime against Dutch." And since I'm pretty sure loads of the dutch people here make the same mistakes I wrote a comprehensive HowTo:

I actually was taught the kofschip/fokschaap rule, or no that was with the past tense.(We have double t's and d's sometimes.)
I don't really bother with my spelling too much, dyslexia declaration FTW

Anyway, some basics now:

Let's first starts with the 'persoonlijk voornaamwoorden'(personal prenouns, lit: personal firstnaamwords)
Ik (I, capitalisation not required)
Jij (You, familiar singular, capitalisation not required)
Zij (both 'she' aswel as 'them' capitalisation not required)
Hij (He, capitalisation not required)
U (You, polite, and both plural aswel as singular, capitalisation not required, BUT, if you do capitalise it and it's not at the beggining of a sentence, you'll have to keep capitalising it.)
Wij (We, capitalisation not required)
Jullie (You, familiar plural, capitalisation not required)

And now a werkwoord(verbs, lit: working words)

Werken(to work) is a regular verb. When doing regular werbs, you first try to find the 'stam'(I don't know the english word for this). In this case that is 'werk'
Tegenwoordige tijd(Present tense, lit: present time)
Ik werk (I work, only the 'stam')
Jij werkt (You work, 'stam' + t)
Hij " (he works, same thing as jij werkt)
Zij " (see above, though in plural it's 'stam' + en, thus 'Zij werken')
U " (You work, even in plural)
Wij werken(We work 'stam' + en)
jullie werken(You work, 'stam' + en)

Verleden tijd(past tense, lit: past time)
Now here it get's a little complicated, but if a regular verb 'stam' ends with a K, F, S, C, H or P, the word will have 'te' and 'ten' pasted behind it, if not, the word will have 'de' and 'den' pasted behind it.(This is called the kofschip(or fokschaap) rule)
'Werk' ends with a K, so we will have to paste 'te' and 'ten' behind it.
Ik werkte(I worked.)
Jij werkte(You worked)
Zij werkte(Again, if this is plural, it will be 'Zij werkten')
Hij werkte(he worked)
U werkte(You worked, now I'm not certain about this, but I think if it's U in plural this will become 'U werkten')
Wij werkten(we worked)
Jullie werkten(You worked)

And then the Voltooid tegenwoordige tijd(present continuous, lit: Finished present time) It works the same as in the english language.
Ik heb gewerkt(I have worked)
Wij hebben gewerkt(We have worked)


In Dutch, like most languages the Pers. prenoun comes first and then the verb:
Ik zing(I sing)
After that, nearly any other part of the sentence can just jump in right away.

But with present continuous you can get this:
Ik heb vandaag op het plein gezongen(I have sung at the square today, lit: I have today at the square sung)

Ik hoop dat dit beetje schematische gramatica inzicht verleend.
(I hope that this scematic piece of grammar is giving some insight, lit: I hope that this piece scematic grammar insight gives.)

What do people base their claims on, when saying that Dutch is difficult to learn?
I don't know exactly why, but here in the netherlands grammar and spelling rules are focused on terribly at school, because we are taught so many other languages.
Another thing might be the fact that most foreigners can't even pronounce 'Hoe gaat het?'(How is it going?, lit: How go it?)
Which is a fairly basic sentence...(The combi G and AA makes most people stumble)

Dutch is grammatically quite similiar to German, yet you hardly ever hear people say that German is extremely difficult.

Yes, of course the Dutch language has its difficult parts, but every language has that. And like any other language, Dutch also has easy its parts.

In any case, I believe Dutch isn't that much more difficult than any other Germanic language

*cut out*

Get your metalanguage right.

Sid
10-08-2006, 10:52 AM
again, what source do you base that on?

I'm Dutch myself and I too used to joke around saying that there are more exceptions than regular grammatical rules. However, if you were to study English more in-depth (that is, more in-depth than secondary school level) you'd notice that even English has so many exceptions, it'll drive you crazy.

I'm sorry, but none of my dictionaries or english books have a lot of metalanguage in them >_<

There's no need for the literal translation of metalanguage.

prenoun -> pronoun
stam = base
present tense -> simple present tense (in this case)
past tense -> simple past tense (in this case)
voltooid tegenwoordige tijd = present perfect tense

Dutch isnt that hard to learn, especially if you are german and it's also a bit easier if you are norwegian, swedish or danish. I'm norwegian and I've been learning german for aprox 3 years and I can understand almost any german text, or atleast the essencial part of it unless it's really complicated.
Dutch is pretty much the same, because there are acctually alot of dutch words which are more alike norwegian words than german.

To understand what dutch/german people are saying is a bit more difficult though, but normally I just ask them to speak slowly so I get all the words! :)

Check out my norwegian thread, maybe I can find some words which are really similar in both languages it would be fun :)

And also nitwit ("from the colloquial Dutch 'Ik niet weet', meaning 'I don't know'"), How come? ("a literal translation of the Dutch hoe kom"), Santa Claus ("out of Sinterklaas, a familair form of St Nicholas") :amuse and Yankee ("probably from either Janke (?), a deminutive equivalent to the English Johnny, or Jan Kaas, 'John Cheese', intended originally as a mild insult").

Thanks for the corrections, elite teacher of the Deathgods realm!

Well I went to Xenos to buy some food containers and they had something that they called a 'magnetrondoos', which I figured was a container that was safe (i.e. wouldn't melt) to put in the microwave). It's meant to be a joke because I think the idea of being really offended over being called a stupid container, (i.e. stomme doos) kinda funny. (For anyone not familiar, 'stomme doos' is meant to be the equivalent of called someone a stupid b*#@*ch)

Ik kom uit Engeland. Ik ben een rare snuiter. Mijn land is groter dan je land.
