So for context, I'm romanian, so how can you see, my english is quite decent, took 6 months to learn, and that wasn't to difficult from instance most of the international media is English. I also few years ago tried to learn german, but let's say at some point I gave up, thought I still learn some words and phrases. Now I moved, or better said I work here in Netherlands since 7 months,and definetly I want to stay here on long term. On basis you don't have so much problem if you don't know dutch, but still in more informal situation, like when you works with documents and shit is quite usefull. That being said I decide to start learn dutch. I dowloaded again DuoLingo and started things. I found out that many words similar to german: mann/man, junge - jongen , frau -vrouw. For someone who speaks a native romanic language, who read very phonetic. That's why at first was difficult for me to read in english,not so difficult with german when comes about reading,despite german has hella grammar, and is very difficult to learn it, surprisingly they are quite easy to read for someone with a romanic language background. So what are some tips and tricks to be much easier to learn how to read in dutch? Like which group of sounds , how you read them corectly. If I get how to read/pronounce words, no matter that I don't know them, things become much easier.
