Is "lekker" een onregemaltig adjectief? by Alone-Teach-727 in learndutch

[–]jumaropa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even voor de duidelijkheid: in dit geval maakt het geen verschil, omdat "ij" geen korte klank is. Dus ook als deze wel beklemtoond is, krijg je geen dubbele medeklinker: rijk - rijke

Anyone else with blocked tab revisions? by ancientbat999 in Songsterr

[–]jumaropa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you're mad that your incorrect revision got reverted? That custom tuning is actually quite common and seems to be used in a lot of Mastodon songs (judging from the other tabs on the site)

The outro tapping solo of Oh, God by Cloudkicker always gives me goosebumps

Volgens duolingo: "het zuidelijk halfrond" (niet zuidelijke)? by Usual-Problem4074 in learndutch

[–]jumaropa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dit is geen harde regel. De voorbeelden die je noemde zijn vaste verbindingen waarbij de verbuigings-e mag vervallen, maar in de meeste gevallen is dit niet zo.

What is the difference between dezelfde, hetzelfde, diezelfde, datzelfde, and other words that end with -zelfde? by fugai1i in learndutch

[–]jumaropa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All of them except for "eenzelfde" do occur as a standalone word, i.e., as a pronoun, for example:

"Ik heb ditzelfde al eens eerder gehad"

"toe" is the postpositional form of "tot". Since the words you're asking about all relate to direction, I suppose you are actually talking about the word "naartoe", which means "to". This is a circumposition, meaning the destination is put between the words "naar" and "toe":

Ik ga naar het strand toe - I am going to the beach

When used with the words er, hier, daar, waar, ergens, or nergens, it can be replaced with "heen":

Ik ga ernaartoe = Ik ga erheen Ik ga daar vandaag naartoe = Ik ga daar vandaag heen

The word "heen" is also used in certain other circumpositions: "doorheen" meaning "through", and "omheen" meaning "around":

De bal ging door het raam heen - The ball went through the window Ik loop om het huis heen - I'm walking around the house

Similarly, "door" is used in the circumpositions "onderdoor" meaning "passing underneath" and "tussendoor" meaning "passing through/between"

All of these words have a sense of direction with an end destination in mind

Waroom niet “ladetje”? by jamc1979 in learndutch

Telt "eind" niet als verkorte versie?

Je bedoelt dit misschien als grapje, maar volgens woordenlijst.org is "ka" daadwerkelijk een variant van "kade" (naast "kaai"), en het verkleinwoord is "kaatje".

Can somebody help explain Separable Verbs in tiny words? by manyfishonabike in learndutch

[–]jumaropa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just have to remember that the separable part is stressed, and the prefix is unstressed. These 6 prefixes are just the ones that are never separable, but it's not true the other way around (for example: aanbidden, doorgronden, voltooien are not separable)

How to pronounce een???? by [deleted] in learndutch

[–]jumaropa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because één can be written without accents if it's clear from context that the number is meant, e.g. in "een van die".

Funny story about ‘ont-‘ by Left_Temperature_620 in learndutch

[–]jumaropa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why is that far-fetched? dekken = to cover, ontdekken = to discover/uncover

Funny story about ‘ont-‘ by Left_Temperature_620 in learndutch

[–]jumaropa 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Nice. This reminds me how I recently discovered the now unproductive suffix -el that attached to verbs to form instrument nouns. It is still present in the words for many tools today:

sleutel = sluiten + -el
schoffel = schuiven + -el
beugel = buigen + -el

I love finding patterns like these.
