Dubbel Dutch A practical guide for foreign students of Dutch Dubbel Dutch is a practical guide to present-day colloquial Dutch, focusing on features of the language which courses for foreigners tend to explain inadequately or ignore altogether. Although the book is mainly written with English-speakers in mind, students from other linguistic backgrounds but with a good reading knowledge of English should also be able to take advantage of it. The numerous comparisons between Dutch and English usage should likewise prove valuable and fascinating to Dutch-speaking teachers of Dutch or English, or indeed to anyone with an interest in these two Languages. The approach is informal and often humorous, with examples taken from everyday life wherever possible. For one who wants to learn the ins and outs of the Dutch language, as well as for Dutch who want to improve their use of their English, Dubbel Dutch is double fun and educational. The Author: Kevin Cook, originally British but now naturalized Dutch, is a professional translator who has lived in the Netherlands since 1983 Back
