In English we simply say 'Stay here' In Dutch we add another word so to be more polite

Even (Pronounced -> avan) which means 'JUST' ‘OR' for a minute 'OR' for a while

Stay hereBlijf hier

In Dutch it's a bit harsh so we add 'even' to be politeFor example

Stay-OR-just stay-OR-Stay for a while-OR-Stay for a minute

Blijf even

So;Stay here-OR-Stay here for a while-OR-Stay for a minuteBlijf even hier or blijf hier evenI comeAre you comingCome here-OR-Come here a minuteInside = binnenOutside = buitenCome insideTo wait = WachtenWe are waiting-OR-

I give = Ik geefHe/she/it = Hij/Ze/het geeftI have = ik hebHe/she/it have = Hij/ze/Het Heeft (haaft)He has it alreadyShe had it alreadyShe needs itHe has the informationHe needs the informationHe needs itFORMAL SITUATIONSwe are going to learn a formal version of 'je'-OR- in English 'You'

You (FORMAL) = uThis is used for formal situations, to pay respect to Older people and in formal situations can be represented as for 'all of you'

Please note 'Jullie' is a informal representation of 'you all'

Last thing you (formal situations 'U') always has a 't' ending.For example;P.S as Dutch is an informal society so you'll hear more often the informal forms.

Can you (Informal)Can you (Formal)Can you come (FORMAL)Can you come tomorrow (FORMAL)Can you stay tomorrow

You can-OR-you able toYou are coming (FORMAL)Are you coming (FORMAL)You are coming tomorrow, aren't you?

You drink (INFORMAL)Je drinkt

You drink (Formal)U drinkt

You all drinkJullie drinken

"We, You all, They" have the same plural verb formsNote:- Formal 'U' also gets a 't' always

No I m not at homeTip: “To Be” => Zijn Rule

"To be" = Zijn. In het Nederland "we are", "you all are", "they are" Zijn

We Are => We zijnYou all are => Jullie ZijnThey are => Ze ZijnEXAMPLES:-We are not at homeWe zijn niet thuis

We are home We are not home tomorrowThey are not at homeI am home / I am at house / I have reached homeWe are not staying at homeTired = moeDead = doodI am dead tiredI am tiredAre you tiredI am very tiredI am very tired and I am going homeI am very tired but I am not going homeI am staying home this afternoon because I am very tiredBecause = OmdatTip: “Because” => Omdat Rule

Because = Omdat"Omdat" is widely used and preferred.

Now "Omdat" sends all the verbs that come after it to the end. This is very important.For example when you sayBecause I am tired [DUTCH EQUIVALENT] Because I tired amOmdat Ik moe Ben Tip:- no need to add "E" here. It doesn't apply hereBecause it is goodBecause it is warmBecause it is coldBecause it is readyBecause it is readyBecause he has a catTip: "Omdat" throws all sorts of trigger verbs, normal verbs to the end.Because he wants to have a catBecause he wants to have a friend

Boring / so boringSaaiIt's very boringIt's very boring hereHe is very boringTip: Remember qualities like "nice", "good", "bad" gets an "e"It's a boring dayI am not workingWhy aren't you workingBecause I am tiredBecause it's boringI understand / I understand itHe doesn't understand what she is sayingYou all understand you all understand itThey don't understand / they don't understand itI understand you very wellI don't understand you (you formal)I don't understand you allDo you understand itShe doesn't want to understand itHe doesn't know it but she doesI don't know what you wantI don't know what you want because I don't understand you
