The Netherlands should be highlighted for ë but isn't

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

ï, ö, ü, ä as well (as a diaeresis, not an umlaut)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I can't think of any examples using those

Geïnteresseerd, geïntegreerd, geüniformeerd.

Die eerste 2, natuurlijk, ik weet niet waarom ik dat niet kon bedenken.

Geüniformeerd heb ik nog nooit gezien, zijn er ook woorden met ö of ä?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Coördineren. Met een ä kan ik niet bedenken of vinden.

Kanaän?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

And for à, as in "30 à 50 wilde varkens".

Also é and è: crème, café, etc. Words that originate from France, but they’re used in the Netherlands as well. We also use the accent aigu for emphasis. Also ê for maîtresse, crêpe, etc.

Or just greeting someone with “hé daar!”
