Dutch (Nederlands) is spoken by about 25 million people across the Netherlands, Flanders in Belgium, and Suriname. It belongs to the Germanic (Indo-European) language family and is written in the Latin alphabet. Dutch distinguishes de and het nouns, keeps the verb in second position in main clauses but at the end of subordinate clauses, and is closely related to both German and English.

English to Dutch translation tips

English uses subject–verb–object word order, while Dutch is verb-second, with verb-final subordinate clauses — the AI restructures whole sentences instead of substituting words one by one.
Dutch word order shifts between main and subordinate clauses, and the de/het article choice is unpredictable, so grammatical context drives the translation.
English requires an explicit subject in nearly every sentence and marks questions with word order, so translations into English often need pronouns and auxiliaries that the source language leaves out.
