Les 33!

Hoi!

This lesson teaches me the reflexive verb content, which is easy, but complicated. And I thought I was free of pronouns, no, more pronouns come with this lesson.

I spent about 27 minutes in this lesson, was nice, the verbs themselves are not so easy to put in mind though, but I am not really learning every single verb that appears in lessons, because I can’t. What I do is to know the most important, if I sometime bump into a verb I may be able to understand it or I  can easily look in the dictionary.

The exercise was easy, 50 questions, I don’t think exercises are getting all that difficult thing, and actually, these first verb lessons are not as difficult as I thought it would be.

Tot ziens!

Les 32!

Dag!

In the previous lesson I learnt about separable verbs, Les 32 is about the inseparable verbs in Dutch. Not really the most clear and easy-understood kind of verb, haha!

I say that because I understood that you realize if the verb can or not be separated listening the pronounce, that is crazy, haha. But still was easy, the exercise I think was the very easy! I spent about 25 minutes in lessons, which is the amount of time I am taking for most lessons.

No  vocabulary for these days, I am really busy, sorry.

Doei!

Les 31!

Hoi!

This is where we start to go even deeper in verbs, this time I leant how to use and place a separable verb! I learnt 10 new verbs that are really useful and very nice to understand.

Not so difficult! I really liked it because I learnt very useful verbs like opstaan (the one in picture), and I can make even more complete sentences now. The exercise had 50 questions, it was easy, I got a great score.

This is it, if you note some delay in the posts here, please, don’t think I have abandoned this project because I haven’t! Just busy, see you.

Dag!

Les 30!

Hoi!

This is a verb lesson which I learn more on using the infinitive. This was confusing, not really easy!

I finished this lesson with a long time, because this was messy, so 30 minutes and I still had a time after for doing the Review Test. So, the exercise was actually easy, was a 40 questions one that I only answered 2 questions wrong.

And the review test, another 100 questions that were in fact easy, I thought this could be more difficult. But I first tried a review by myself, just to know it all because I am forgetting things, haha!

Vocabulary

I reviewed a couple of lessons this time, they were Les 3 where you learn basics of verb zijn and some professions that are useful, and Les 4 where I can learn a big food vocabulary.

Just to remember, I am not watching the entire video again, I recommend you to watch because there are some things Bart (our teacher) may say that are not in the lists and that may be important to first time in the course.

OK, doei!

Les 29!

Hallo!

The second part of the modal verb lesson, we learn the verb zullen. A easy, short lesson, I don’t have a lot to say, haha.

So yeah, this was easy, nice exercise, shot lesson, important verb! And, this is the 29th day of course! Yay! See you!

Doei!

Les 28!

Hoi!

This is the first lesson from a series of verb lesson until the course finishes, and first we are learning modal verbs! This time, 4 verbs are taught and they are very nice to learn!

Could finish this lesson in more or less 25 minutes, I have the feeling the next verb lessons are gonna start to take a longer time, this was easy, but I think when I learn other verb conjugations and tenses lessons will be a bit more difficult.

The exercise was good, 40 questions, and with the verbs is back the “fill the blank” questions that I like.

Vocabulary

Not really have started, but will be like this: I won’t do all the video thing and watch, and exercise because I have done before, but indeed I will review some of the most important lessons sometimes, to get few vocabulary. This is it, just a test, see you!

Doei!

Les 27!

Hey!

This lesson talks about the comparative degree in Dutch, in fact, this lesson was already finished and studied a long time ago. In case you don’t know, you can experience one free lesson and do the exercise and all, and the free lesson is this.

I had done before, and the results remain recorded in your profile, that is great!

So, not really a lot to say about it, but I remember that I really liked the animations in this lesson! Was very nice!

Next lesson we start again about verbs, which will be the main content in the next times. See you!

Les 26!

Hoi!

Dit les ik leer zes vraagwoorden dat ik vraag en zij zijn interessant vragen. Yeah, me trying yo say something, hahaha! This lesson we get to learn about question words, I mean, more question words. This time, 6 hoe question words, that are very useful and important to communicate.

Easy lesson, made in more or less 25 minutes, I liked the exercise, got nice score again and next lesson we talk about adjectives again!

And, I have decided to come back and do Vocabulary course again. I had stopped somewhere after lesson 25, at least that is from where I remember the content. In the next days, you will see a post that I will do explaining about that course in case you don’t know it, and I really recommend that you guys do it!

In fact, in a few lesson we will start a little more deep in verbs, and that will be it, so I will need some vocabulary to practice with the verb things I will learn.

Doei!

Les 25!

Dag!

This time I learnt about how can I negate something in Dutch, and I think this is another very confusing and difficult subject in the course, you know, it also need more main clause, oh no.

The lesson a long one, although not extremely boring and is well explained. I answered 2 questions wrong in the exercise, though. As another 5 lessons are passed, another review test. I thought this would be difficult to myself, not really! Easy, 90 questions, love these tests because it is a way to actually remember.

And I am finally here, officially half way done! 50% of this course is now finished! Yay!

Doei!

Les 24!

Dag!

And in Les 24 the course is back to, in my opinion, the most boring topic to study in the entire course until now, the confusing word order! It is back, and I still don’t know how is that in Portuguese, although I have done research and found something that sounds like it, haha.

This was a short lesson, not lots of vocabulary, confusing word order topic, maybe this is the thing which I have most difficulty in the course, but I managed to do the exercise well! Almost half course done, I’m loving to study Dutch!

Dag!
