Speak and understand Dutch in 3 months!

This practical language learning course is packed with Dutch vocabulary, grammar insights and tips to make learning a new language easier. It also includes an audio app that makes learning interactive!

Inside this Dutch language book, you’ll find:

   • “Imitated pronunciation” sections that make unfamiliar Dutch sounds less daunting to English learners
   • Word lists, key phrases and model sentences that build vocabulary 
   • Three self-assessment sections that allow the learner to engage with their own learning, and exercises follow each grammar lesson, reinforcing what has just been taught
   • Two mini bilingual dictionaries, meaning you can check words in both English and Dutch

Speak Dutch fluently in only 12 weeks! Hugo: Dutch in 3 Months has a fresh new look and an accompanying audio app to make learning Dutch easy and fun. This self-study course
provides all the resources needed to speak, read and write in Dutch.

The 12 weekly chapters contain lessons on the key grammatical structures and present a
range of useful vocabulary, along with exercises to reinforce your learning. The essentials of Dutch grammar are clearly explained and tested in conversational exercises, giving you the authentic feel of the language. 

In addition to a written “imitated pronunciation” guide, which replaces Dutch sounds with English syllables you’re already familiar with, the new audio app also allows you to perfect your pronunciation — at home or on the go.

Whether you’re learning a new language for work, a future vacation or as a hobby, the Hugo language course series is the perfect place to start. Learn languages like French, German, Italian or Spanish in only 12 weeks! Each course includes an audio app to help with understanding and pronunciation. Language learning has never been so easy!
