- Learn Dutch conjunctions: inversion, catapult and word order
One of the typical challenges for Dutch students: the word order. Dutch structures sentences mostly like English, but the word order sometimes change. For example with conjunctions. So let's learn how some conjunctions affect the structure of the sentences.

This channel is made to learn Dutch for English speakers. By learning Dutch with videos, you'll learn basic Dutch pronunciation, by learning it online with many Dutch phrases and Dutch words. We'll also see basic Dutch grammar as well as tips on how to speak Dutch. The accent used is from Belgium, so it's Belgian Dutch, which is also understood in the Netherlands.

Trying to translate from English to Dutch is very difficult because of the different word order. This helps a lot. Thanks very much
Thanks! Here's more about Dutch word order: learn-any-language-with-alain.com/dutch-word-order-for-beginners-mini-course/
Ik moet zeg, dat je de beste leraar bent. Ik heb heel van he geleerd. Dank u🙏
You're a good teacher
Great video. I like how you explained these words.
Excellent lesson 🌱
such a great method to remember this complex rule!
i don't remember watching this video before but i am so happy you recommended in the "omdat/want video" because now everything makes sense!! I just need to save up a bit more of money so I am able to purchase your programs but thank you so much in advance or making this videos, your explanatios so far are very clear and easy to understand! greetings from Limburg.
Thanks again for the nice comments! Also, here's the video on writing emails: ruclips.net/video/rYh4AlgSjnw/видео.html
Thank you for making this channel. I've been using duolingo to learn and it's great as practice but also it doesn't explain why the sentence suddenly changes or why they suddenly change word use (like flip-flopping meijes and meiden with no explaination beyond now use this for girls)
You're very welcome! Meiden sounds a bit more 'grown-up', meisjes is a diminutive. More info: ruclips.net/video/XdbuRtt-fJ0/видео.html
@@LearnDutchwithAlain that was super helpful!
Thank you a lot for the explanation, I really needed it.
Btw, word order in German works pretty much like this with one exception - in subordinate clauses you put the modal and auxilirary verbs at the end.
You're welcome. Indeed, knowing German really helps. Another thing is the 'Ich glaube, es wäre gut sein', in Dutch you'd use a 'dat' in between the two sentences.
i love conjunctions and catapult and word order. I love how the Dutch grammar is different from English grammar. Because i have a dyslexia and i can easily confuse two languages. ( english is not my native language).
so helpful
that was very useful
Thank you so much
bedankt meneer u bent echt goed met uitleggen .vroegen heb ik probleem met omdat maar nu heb ik iets geleerd van uw video bedankt nog een keer
Ik vind deze video interested
Dankjewel voor je uitleg! :)
Graag gedaan :)
Duolingo has this subject in quite an early position, yet it's an A2 subject? It's especially difficult on uses like "hebben nodig" and "van houden", since the "verb" consists of two parts and they are located in completely different parts.
It's a subject many students of different levels struggle with, even B1 and B2. It's important to get it right from the start though. If not, you might still make mistakes at higher levels.
@@LearnDutchwithAlain definitely. Is it possible to give some examples for these two if not too much hassle?
Erg bedankt! Kan je met andere conjucties ( nadat, indien, zogauw,enz) sommige voorbelden maken?
Goed, ik voeg het aan de lijst toe. Momenteel heb ik niet veel tijd, maar ik laat het je weten.
Hier is de video: ruclips.net/video/pnzN3gLgeJU/видео.html veel plezier!
Hello, it's pretty hard for me to understand when in the sentence the second verb is not being placed at the end for example "we kunnen niet beginnen zonder hem" i dont understand exactly why is "beginnen" is not placed at the end
Good question, parts starting with prepositions can be put behind the second verb. But they're also correct before the second verb, as in: 'We kunnen niet zonder hem beginnen.' I advise my student to try this as much as possible as it becomes a bad habit to put other words behind the second infinitive, which might be incorrect.
@@LearnDutchwithAlain okay thank you for explanation
Hello.. Can you please make a video on adverbs ?
Hi Sonika, what questions do you have? In Dutch, adverbs and adjectives are the same: ik werk goed, dat is een goede kat.
Dank u wel
Bedankt
Thank you for the video but I have a question. In the sentences below: ''Omdat ik nu ga werken, kan ik vroeger vertrekken.'' Why is the verb ''ga'' not in infinitive form? Isn't it that all verbs go at the end in infinitive form when we use omdat and als? If not is this sentence wrong: ''Als ik meer woog, zou ik snel kunnen lopen.'' Here does kunnen have to be in finite form?
Thank you.
Hi, when you're using modal verbs like gaan, you'll conjugate the modal verb. Even with als and omdat. In the sentence "Als ik meer woog, zou ik snel kunnen lopen.', zou is the conjugated modal verb, so indeed kunnen is in the infinitive form.
@@LearnDutchwithAlain Thank you for the explanation, much appreciated. :)
Are both correct?
Als jij de rekening betaalt hebt, kan je vertrekken.
Als jij de rekening hebt betaalt, kan je vertrekken.
Yes! Long (and difficult, and in Dutch) answer is: taaladvies.net/werkwoordvolgorde-in-werkwoordgroepen-groepen-van-twee-werkwoorden-algemeen/
@@LearnDutchwithAlain Dank je wel Alain
4:22 Can we say "We gaan NAAR restaurant.." instead of "We gaan OP restaurant" here?
Yes, but with het: 'naar het restaurant'. Op restaurant is, I discovered recently, typically Belgian.
@@LearnDutchwithAlain thank you for the explanations ☺️
Hoi Sir! Ik kom uit de Philippines :) Is eerder and vroeger are same?
Hello! Yes, but eerder can also mean 'rather.'
@@LearnDutchwithAlain Dankjewel voor je uitleg!
kunt u een video maken over schrijven een hoe moet we een email of brieven in goede manier schrijven bv ik kan niet email schrijven in profsioneile manier (past perfect present etc)

Please help me how to pronounce the difference between EEN EN - A AND?
Here's a lesson about that: ruclips.net/video/3VprTHDfcGk/видео.html, but do mind there are regional differences.
@@LearnDutchwithAlain hello po 😁 salamat thank you for the reply🤗 i wanted to pass the exam in MVV A1 exam and im worry in my pronunciation. Sometimes i hear when they pronounce W its sounds like that but... Sometimes its sounds like a but V...so im confuse sometimes... I would really love if you will make more video in pronounciation it helps a lot 🤗🤗🤗
No way! Master Yoda is Dutch?😱😂
Dutch he is. You didn't know? :D
Learn Dutch with Alain 😂😂😂
I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE I have changed word order with maar and want sooo much
I must have looked like an idiot 😩
Ah, well, it's ok, if you don't mistakes, you won't learn anything!
bedankt voor de filmpje knappe man...
Waarom zo on Louis h?
H is pronounced differently across the regions... Some don't even pronounce it, others have a 'hard' h.
5:04 we gaan ip restaurant als jij de rekening hebt betaalt... Your explanation is contradicting.. Why is the verb hebt is not at the end... Catapult?
There are 2 verbs (hebt & betaald), both are at the end.
@@LearnDutchwithAlain betaald is the participle for "paid"... How can a participle be considered as a "verb"? "I have paid" in Dutch is " Ik heb betaald". Sorry, but this is very strange.
dutch is hard as gathered
So the bigger the reward at the end :)
4:00 so you can learn what is "going Dutch". Weird petty mentality
We gaan op restaurant... is not correct Dutch. It is Flemish, but correct Dutch would be "We gaan naar het restaurant.."
Well, this channel is to learn Dutch from Belgium... 'Nederlands' is also one of the official languages of Belgium.
Ik vind het wel chic klinken hoor, "We gaan op restaurant" ik gebruik deze zin altijd. Groet uit Nederland ;-:)
@@LearnDutchwithAlain I forgot that by law Flemish Dutch and Dutch Dutch are both correct in both countries. My bad. I just wanted to say that most Dutch speaking people would say "We gaan naar het restaurant". Forget it.
No worries, I actually just said this to one of my students in the Netherlands :)
Unnecessary rules it could be much easier but human made rules makes complications.
Your accent is pretty weird, I've been hearing my girlfriend's family speak Dutch for 6 years and I've lived in Amsterdam for 3, but I've never heard anyone pronounce words like you. Where are you from?
Hi, I'm from Belgium, that's probably why :) I also slow down and tend to over-articulate so students understand. Grammar is the same though, and vocabulary around 99% the same. And in this video there's even more info: ruclips.net/video/vHhppJO67ko/видео.html
You mb brain is in pain , speaking like Yoda 😅
