Look Up Common Dutch Words, hear their pronunciation, see English translation and follow links ‑>> to explanation, examples of usage and/or related words.
This is a reference page, and a portal to my website. For learning words I recommend:
General: Basic Dutch (about a thousand common words) - mobile version
or: Pictures Dictionary - mobile
or visit the Vocabulary Overview
Not all the words on my website are on this list! Use the 'search' function top left if you can't find the word you're looking for.
Double slash // indicates the word has a double meaning
Dutch nouns take either 'de' 2 or 'het' 2 as the definite article ('the') - See Also
'Het' is often shortened to
't
- note the sound change from 'short E'
to 'voiceless E'
