How to Learn Colors in Dutch
- 1). Look up the English words for the colors in a Dutch dictionary. Several Dutch dictionaries are available such as "The New Routledge Dutch Dictionary," "Langenscheidt Universal Dictionary Dutch" and "Dutch-English English-Dutch Hippocrene Standard Dictionary." Each gives tips for pronunciation of the words.
- 2). Use a free Dutch translation tool online. For example, at "Babylon.com" you can enter the word, such as "blue," and set it to translate from English to Dutch. It will then give you the Dutch word "blauw." "WorldLingo.com" and "Translation Services USA" also provides free online English to Dutch translator for simple words such as colors.
- 3). Ask a friend who speaks Dutch for the words to colors in the Dutch language. With the help of a friend proficient in Dutch you will be able to hear the Dutch pronunciation for the different colors and better say the words yourself.
