English speakers tend to say things more politely by using Modals. They prefer words like Would, could, should and might in questions and suggestions. For instance: I would appreciate it if; I don’t think we should; or, you might want to think about the consequences. Dutch speakers will be a lot more definitive and direct about things.

In English, if someone is looking for support or confirmation, they often stick a short question at the end of the sentence. That’s the same as the Dutch ‘toch?’, ‘niet dan?’, or ‘hè?’ at the end of the sentence. For instance ‘Netflix is not really expensive, is it?’ or ‘Aimée has got a great job, hasn’t she?’ These questions are called tag questions.

Consider what you already know about the topic. Everything you already know makes it easier to understand what is being said.

don’t panic because of the things you odn’t understand, try to focus on everything you do understand.

try to predict what the other is going to say, it wil make it easier to catch subtle hints and implicit meanings.
