About Dutch

 

Dutch is the name of the official language spoken by more than 20 million people in the Netherlands and in Flanders, the Northern part of Belgium – together they are sometimes called the Low Countries, or “Lage Landen”. Contrary to what many people would have you believe, particularly the Dutch, it is a relatively easy language to learn, particularly for speakers of English, because of the many similarities in vocabulary amongst the Germanic language family, and the regularities of the Dutch language within Germanic language family.
