Brush Up Dutch: Learn Dutch

Learn a bit of Dutch every day.

Brush Up Dutch is a three-minute episode every morning, made for listening while you brush your teeth. Each one takes an everyday scene, like breakfast, visiting friends or a late train, and three common Dutch words from it. Everything is in Dutch, spoken slowly, with a bit of Dutch culture around the words.

For strong beginners to intermediate learners. If you know a bit of Dutch and want to practice your listening, this is for you. It is not a course for absolute beginners.

WHAT YOU GET
• A new episode every day, about three minutes long
• Dutch subtitles, with English under every word
• Pictures and short clips that show what is being said
• Switches for the subtitles, the English, the breaks and the background music
• Tomorrow's topic and words after each episode, with a countdown
• A morning reminder, if you want one
• Episodes are saved on your phone, so they play without a connection

HOW IT WORKS
The episode follows your toothbrush: four parts, one for each quarter of your mouth, each with its own word, and a short recall at the end. Listen once in the morning and again in the evening, and the words stick a little better each time.

Built around the 3,000 most common Dutch words, in standard Dutch from the Netherlands.
