Ready to speak more Dutch – beyond just “Hoe gaat het?”
In this video, I’ll teach you real Dutch conversation starters that locals actually use. In easy to follow Dutch - with subtitles.
They’re easy, effective, and instantly help you connect — whether you’re at the school gate, in the supermarket, or by the coffee machine at work.

No more awkward silences or switching back to English.
These Dutch phrases help you to connect, enjoy small talk, and build confidence while your'e at it.

You’ll learn:

  • How to open any convo with the weather (yes, it’s a thing in Dutch culture!)

  • How to give casual compliments that feel natural

  • What to say on Mondays ("lekker weekend gehad?") or Fridays ("leuke plannen dit weekend?")

And… how to reply like a local with:

  • “Nou!”

  • “Zeg dat wel!”

  • And even, “Nee joh, Zeeman, drie euro!” (when someone compliments your outfit)

This is a must-watch if you want to make Dutch part of your daily life.
Practice these phrases, try them this week — and let me know in the comments how it went!
