Pronounce the numbers the way they are written in the parentheses:
* Een (the 'ee' sounds like 'a' in way an add an n after it)
* Twee ( the 'ee' is like 'a' in way and 'tw' sounds the same as in English)
* Drie ( 'ie' sounds like the 'e' in me and the rest sounds the same)
* Vier ( 'ie' sounds like the 'e' in me and the rest sounds the same)
* Vijf
* Zes ( 'es' sounds like the 'ess'in mess)
* Zeven ( the first 'e' sounds like 'a' and the rest is the same as seven)
* Acht ( 'a' = ah, ch sounds like 'ch' in chronicle with a g-sound)
* Negen (the first 'e' sounds like 'a' in way and the second like the second e in seven.
* Tien ( 'ie' sounds like the 'e' in me and the rest sounds the same)
Tips
* Try to sound a bit German. Dutch an German are very similar in many ways.
* If you know anybody who does speak Dutch, ask him/her to count to ten so you know exactly how it sounds. It's much easier
* If you seriously want to study Dutch you should learn more about the way Dutch people pronounce words before you can actually speak a full sentence.
warnings :ph43r:
Try to avoid speaking with an English accent.
You're really in a national pride mood, aren't you Brigitte? ;) That's cool, I love learning about other places.
Where's the pronounciation help for five?? Try as I might, I can't do accents. I'm really terrible at them, and I know it's easier to speak the new language if you can, but it's just not within my range, unfortunately.
