One of the hardest things about learning Dutch is pronunciation. Whether it is about the\u00a0ui<\/em><\/a>-klank<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>(the “ui” sound), the\u00a0G-klank<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/em>(the “G” sound) or other sounds you might have a hard time with. This series, called “Can You Say This Correctly?”, is about providing a speech example that I recorded. I will give the Dutch text, a translation, and I will add one comment or more for parts that you have to heed for\u00a0pronunciation.\u00a0If there are any sounds that you would like to see\u00a0a post about, let me know in the comments!<\/strong><\/p>\n
