When you finish this deck, you’ll have the knowledge and confidence you need to understand a large share of Dutch TV shows and real YouTube videos.
This deck is optimized to teach you the words that actually appear in Dutch media, with example sentences and images so the words stick.
After processing language to find the most frequent words, we usually remove smaller “grammar” words since they’re so common. For this deck, we decided to give them to you as extra words: 100 of the most common small words are included as BONUS vocab, for 1,100 cards total.
The hardest part of learning a language is basic comprehension. Once you can understand enough to have fun, you'll never want to stop.
Clear, consistent audio for every word and sentence so you can connect spelling to sound.
Reinforce what you learn with concrete, high-quality visuals.
Learn words in context with custom-made example sentences.
