Lesson 1F

I can introduce myself to new people.

In the previous lessons

We talked about facts and habits. You can use this to tell people things about yourself and your family, for instance:

I play football.

I play the guitar.

My father works at a bank.

Today

We are going to discuss two things; object pronouns and speaking.

Before we start...

A quick test to see if you still know how to use the Present Simple affirmative, negative and interrogative.

My brother ... (know) a lot of people.

I ... (not - want) an ice cream.

... (you - see) that man over there?

My father ... (not work) at Groevenbeek.

... (he - like) his classmates?

I ... (hate) doing my homework.

Mr Visscher hopes that we ... (understand) the Present Simple.

Let's get to work

Follow your teacher's instructions

We are going to do exercises 1, 2 & 3 together.

Question

What are object pronouns in Dutch, i.e. which Dutch grammar can we link it to?

Discuss in pairs.

Object pronouns

In Dutch we call them: lijdende voorwerpen en meewerkende voorwerpen.

Oh no! Two things?

Yes, but do not worry, if you know the translation, it is actually quite easy :)!

me

you

him

her

it

us

you

them

mij

jou

hem

haar

het

ons

jullie

hen

And then...

All you need to do is to look at the sentence; who are we talking about? For instance:

Michael is so annoying. I don't really like ...

We are talking about Michael so we use...?

I don't like apples; I hate ...

I can't find my book. I think I lost ...

My mother is amazing! I really love ...

I don't want to see that movie. I have already seen ...

She doesn't just like John, she is in love with ...

My brother and I love it when our parents give ... presents.

Mr Visscher knows a lot about grammar. If you don't understand it you should ask ...

Don't ask ... anything about mathematics, because I am not good at it.
