Lindie Botes | Trying to speak DUTCH without ever learning it (as an Afrikaans person) @LindieBotes | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 29 minutes ago.
So. I might either embarrass myself very much online, or this might be the start of a new language adventure... or both. For context, I am Afrikaans but I have never studied Dutch before. I have, however, listened to a lot of Dutch music and watched a lot of Instagram reels in Dutch.
So, I just try and copy the pronunciation and try and think what the word might be, BUT I have no knowledge of grammar, tenses or much vocabulary, really.
I want to use this video as a log to see how far I can come in my Dutch learning journey. So, please go easy on me!
