【實用教育app】Syllables Dutch|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

This app divides each Dutch word into syllables, even the very long ones. Furthermore you will get hints about the pronounciation:

- Which syllable is stressed or emphasized (bold)

- When you pronounce an e, i or ij as an unaccented e or shwa, sounding like: uh (underlined)

- Which n and g or n and k in adjacent syllables must together be pronounced as an ng- or nk-sound (italics).

Finally, symbols indicate if the vowel(s) in a syllable must be pronounced unstressed, short or long.

You will need this information to correctly conjugate Dutch verbs. Knowing what the last syllable before the -en in a verb is and how it sounds, is essential to determine the stem.

But this app will also help you to better understand and pronounce (very) long Dutch words.

You can enter one or more words or paste a section of Dutch text, e.g. from a website or an email.

The Dutch language has a number of complex exceptions, causing several words to have multiple options for the stressed syllable. In rare cases, the division into syllables of identically spelled words can differ. Therefore, this app is not always right. But in almost all cases the division into syllables and hints about pronounciation can really help you to get a better understanding and improve your pronounciation of Dutch words.
