Who speaks Dutch?

[Pietro Paolo Virdis]

Couple of phrases I'd need som help with

[Pietro Paolo Virdis]

Who speaks Dutch?

Would make sense to put up the bloody phrase, wouldn't it?

I need a sign which invites Dutch fans to come in and watch when Holland play at a mates place.

Something which involves what the dutch fans are called, and makes clear it's where the Dutch are to gather.

stick 'de elftal hier' at the end of that sentence and you are good to go.

Oh, and throw in a 'Hup Holland Hup' for good measure.

Bowl within and view?

Come in and look

Kom binnen kijken de elftal op de TV hier
Come in and watch the Dutch on TV here.

Hup Holland Hup
Go Holland Go.

'de elftal' means team, but in Dutch it means the Dutch team.

Er, no.

It's het elftal, not de elftal.

'Kom binnen en kijk hier naar Oranje.'

Come in and watch Oranje here.

Thanks. I wasnt sure, and I did have both as possibilities first.

(Would 'aankijken' or 'bekijken' work for this? I always had problems with derived verbs...)

'Aankijken' is what you do towards people. 'What kijk je me aan?' = What are you looking at? (in a not so friendly manner, when someone glances at you and you're the type that likes to frighten people)

'Bekijken' is what you do when you examine something. 'Een document bekijken'.

'Kijken' is simply looking or watching. It's usually but not always accompanied by 'naar' ("ik kijk naar het Nederlands elftal" = "i'm looking at the Dutch team" or, better, "i'm watching the Dutch team") .
