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.
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.
Some suggestions for your Audio Valentine Card in Dutch.
You can also download the files to your computer and send one of them to your Dutch sweetheart by email! It would be a nice surprise, wouldn’t it? These are only 13 – 18 kB in size each.
We don’t have a Dutch expression for ‘happy Valentine’. Only recently we started sending each other cards on February 14th. We copied this habit from the English speaking world, so we just use the English expression for it: Happy Valentine.
