I was going crazy over this on Duo Lingo as I just didn't understand when to add an e. This explains it well, though please also add the correct solution for the practice in the video as well. (I know that the correct solution can be found in the comments.)
This helped a lot, I am learning Dutch on Duolingo and have been struggling to understand why this is the case. That being said, hond is a ‘de’ noun, so why is it “een langzaam hond”?
Isn't there an error at 2:00? It says to add e to het words when there is an indefinite article. Unless I am not hearing well, this is backwards. The e is removed, not added, when het words have indefinite articles.
I'm not exactly sure how to explain this exactly hehe but 'gebakken' is a form of the verb 'bakken,' it means 'baked'. And you cannot change this word as an adjective. It's a past participle, as in 'I have baked' 'ik heb gebakken.' But I don't have a real answer to your question, I hope it helps somehow.
Dat is en mooie hond , want is "de hond", Ik kom uit een klein gezin, want is "het gezin" met "een", dus het is indefinite, right? En laatse, In Utrecht zijn veel goede restaurants, maar Ik weet eigenlijk niet waroom... maar misschien want restaurants is plural (loll Idk how to say that in Nederlands).
I liked your explanation but had to listen to it several times as you mispronounce the words 'definite, indefinite and adjective". Please listen to English pronunciations of these words - you put the stress in the wrong places.
This video is criminally underappreciated.
This has been a seriously struggle for me and finding clear reference material is hard, this is super helpful. Dank je wel!
finally someone that explains it well, cheers mate

I agree with you. I have been wondering if any body else understand the same.
• Dat is een mooie hond.
• Ik kom uit een klein gezin.

Why is it "Gebakken uitjes" not "Gebakkene uitjes"?
I'm not exactly sure how to explain this exactly hehe but 'gebakken' is a form of the verb 'bakken,' it means 'baked'. And you cannot change this word as an adjective.
It's a past participle, as in 'I have baked' 'ik heb gebakken.' But I don't have a real answer to your question, I hope it helps somehow.

Ik kom uit een klein gezin, want is "het gezin" met "een", dus het is indefinite, right?

btw, I am also not sure whether it makes sense the way I wrote my answer. But I did my best :) Thank you for your videos Koen!
Restaurants is plural yes. Plurals are always "de" words. Heel goed gedaan :)
