Dutch course materials

This audible is solid info. Henry Stern knows Dutch. He also knows English as evidenced by his readability. I've bought my share of Dutch course materials - CDs, tapes, references, etc. "Essential Dutch Grammer" is of great value.

languages, the Dutch way!

Languages are intricately linked to a country’s culture, so to truly understand a culture’s finer aspects, you want to be able to speak the language well. Besides, from a very practical point of view, it’s indispensable to speak Dutch to be able to apply for the widest possible array of jobs, since many employers in Dutch-speaking countries won’t be able to hire you speak the language…’

Dutch more accessible

make Dutch more available to a broader population. As they have previously said in their other work on the Dutch language: ‘Dutch is spoken people in the Netherlands, people in Belgium, and about another million people living around the world.

Dutch

A good audible to give you a survey of the essentials of Dutch grammar. If you need something a little more important, though, I highly recommend "Dutch: A Comprehensive Grammar"The price difference is meaningful, but you get what you pay for.

Great Dutch for Beginners audible!

Interesting and useful audible! I don't know anything about Dutch and was curious about it. This was the perfect audible for me. It wasn't so much about how to speak Dutch, but why to learn and many of gifts and advice. I thought the chapter on common mistakes was exceptionally useful.

who are traveling in Dutch-speaking countries

I like the simple setup of this audible. There are discussions on a wide variety of topics that might come up for people of any age who are traveling in Dutch-speaking countries each conversation is sold in Dutch first; The authors state that the translation is not word for word as there is not sometimes a precise, similar meaning between the two languages.

fundamentals of Dutch sentence construction.

Dutch is very much a combination of German dictionary and English grammatical structure. This makes it almost easy for the English listen to master the fundamentals of Dutch sentence construction. It does help to have a working theory of German, I have been studying Dutch for only two months, I am now able to compose short, simple sentences in Dutch,

Basic Dutch Grammar

I took one semester of Dutch at the college level and I thought I had hardly gotten anywhere, but I learned more than is in this audible. This work is lacking in details where it wouldn't take too long to provide them. For example, the work mentions there are several small endings for Dutch nouns and provides a few examples.
