Dutch Sentence Structure – Part 1: Normal Word Order & Inversion
An NT2 workbook for A0–A2 learners
Struggling with Dutch word order? You're not alone! It's one of the most common hurdles for Dutch learners, and once it clicks, everything else gets easier.
This straight-to-the-point 17-page workbook covers exactly what beginners need first: normal word order and inversion: no padding, no lengthy theory, just clear explanations and practice.
You'll learn precisely where time expressions go (not at the end, like in English), why Dutch uses verbs like staan, zitten, and liggen instead of just zijn, and how to correctly flip subject and verb when a sentence starts with something other than the subject.
Includes 7 varied exercises:
- sentence building
- error-spotting
- translation
- verb choice
Plus a complete answer key so you can check your own work immediately.
Part 1 of a 4-part series.
Created by me, Renée van Zandvoort, founder of Dutch and You, based on real patterns I see daily, teaching adult NT2 students.
