Dutch Dialogues A1: News

So apparently the politie found six people hiding in a vrachtwagen near a veerboot. Not exactly the best way to travel, right? Sophie, Daan and I talk about what happened. The conversation is super simple, perfect for A1, and you'll pick up useful words like "verstekeling" and "vrachtwagen" without even trying. Kleine stappen tellen! Here's a question for you: have you ever been on a veerboot? Where did it take you? This episode is gezellig and short, just a few minutes. Listen once, twice, whatever feels good. You're doing great. Lekker bezig! ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Full transcript + oefeningen: https://dutchfluency.com 🌷 Tulip Trainer: https://tulip.dutchfluency.com 📊 Dashboard: https://dashboard.dutchfluency.com 🎧 ALL DUTCH FLUENCY PODCASTS: 📖 Short Stories: 🟢 A1: https://open.spotify.com/show/4b0uNMBJkiXvRy7UzHYSme 🟡 A2: https://open.spotify.com/show/0PFmkqcCMdT07HXpYJkXCq 🟠 B1: https://open.spotify.com/show/7u0D4Ucl4iPJLha28soq07 💬 Dutch Dialogues: 🟢 A1: https://open.spotify.com/show/3GG9LxfX11s6JLIRE5dGbF 🟡 A2: https://open.spotify.com/show/51hF6peS6DuXiZMMe8N0H4 🟠 B1: https://open.spotify.com/show/2zsBuz9UoRWJN0W24fU4Gz 📰 News Stories: 🟡 A2: https://open.spotify.com/show/3utK4u1YQBtHWMjXCD0HTJ 🟠 B1: https://open.spotify.com/show/4hyQamyd04vwEUYq4CdOAo 🎵 Dutch Music: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3nJdrBe9KSZ1mEO0550GVJ

So apparently, a pretty important diplomat passed away in France. Leila Shahid was 76, and she spent her life working for Palestinian rights. Not exactly lekker news, but important to talk about, toch? In this episode, Tom, Julia and I chat about who she was and why people are remembering her. We keep it simple, A1-style, so you can follow along without stress. Here's something to think about: Do you know any people in your life who really fought for something they believed in? Maybe not famous, just... people who stood up for what mattered to them? Listen in, practice your Dutch, and remember: kleine stappen tellen! Every conversation you understand, even the serious ones, means your Dutch is getting better.

So apparently Odido (you know, the phone company) kept people's data way longer than they said they would. Oeps. Tom and Julia chat about what happened and why it's kind of a big deal. Rick jumps in to help with the Dutch words and make sure everything's clear. Here's my question for you: Do you ever think about what companies do with your gegevens (data)? Or is it one of those things where you just click "agree" and hope for the best? Look, this episode has some tricky words, but don't stress. Just listen, pick up what you can, and come back later if you want. Kleine stappen tellen! Goed bezig, and see you in the next one! ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Full transcript + oefeningen: https://dutchfluency.com 🌷 Tulip Trainer: https://tulip.dutchfluency.com 📊 Dashboard: https://dashboard.dutchfluency.com 🎧 ALL DUTCH FLUENCY PODCASTS: 📖 Short Stories: 🟢 A1: https://open.spotify.com/show/4b0uNMBJkiXvRy7UzHYSme 🟡 A2: https://open.spotify.com/show/0PFmkqcCMdT07HXpYJkXCq 🟠 B1: https://open.spotify.com/show/7u0D4Ucl4iPJLha28soq07 💬 Dutch Dialogues: 🟢 A1: https://open.spotify.com/show/3GG9LxfX11s6JLIRE5dGbF 🟡 A2: https://open.spotify.com/show/51hF6peS6DuXiZMMe8N0H4 🟠 B1: https://open.spotify.com/show/2zsBuz9UoRWJN0W24fU4Gz 📰 News Stories: 🟡 A2: https://open.spotify.com/show/3utK4u1YQBtHWMjXCD0HTJ 🟠 B1: https://open.spotify.com/show/4hyQamyd04vwEUYq4CdOAo 🎵 Dutch Music: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3nJdrBe9KSZ1mEO0550GVJ

Ever wonder what Dutch people actually talk about when they read the news? Rick, Tom, and Julia are chatting about a news article they just read. They're reacting to it, sharing their thoughts, and yeah, probably disagreeing a bit too. You know how conversations go. What do you think makes a news story interesting enough to talk about with friends? You'll hear everyday Dutch words and phrases that people actually use when they discuss things. Plus you get to practice listening to three different voices, which honestly helps a lot more than just hearing one person talk the whole time. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 LEARN MORE: Full transcript + exercises: https://dutchfluency.com 🎧 ALL DUTCH DIALOGUE PODCASTS: 🟢 A1 Beginner: https://open.spotify.com/show/4b0uNMBJkiXvRy7UzHYSme 🟢 A2 Elementary: https://open.spotify.com/show/0PFmkqcCMdT07HXpYJkXCq 🟢 B1 Intermediate: https://open.spotify.com/show/4hyQamyd04vwEUYq4CdOAo ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Level A1 | 2-3 min 📰 Source: Nieuws van: https://nos.nl/l/2602507
