Say it in Dutch on Valentinesday

Posted on February 14, 2017 by Say it in Dutch

Op 14 februari is het Valentijnsdag. In Nederland is dit niet zo’n grote feestdag. Maar sommige mensen sturen een anoniem kaartje naar hun vriend of vriendin.

Hier is de podcast die Say it in Dutch een tijdje geleden heeft gemaakt. Daarmee kun je een paar zinnen oefenen.

Hier kun je de geschreven tekst in pdf downloaden

On February 14th it is Valentine’s day. In The Netherlands this is not such a huge holiday. But some people send an anonymous postcard to their (boy-)friend or (girl-)friend.

Here is the podcast made by Say it in Dutch a while ago. With this you can practise some phrases.

You can find the downloadlinks for the mp3 and pdf above.
