What You'll Learn
You’ll learn to better understand and apply the grammatical structure of Dutch at the B1 level. The module covers sentence structures and grammatical themes that correspond to Lessons 1–40 of the Delftse methode B1 book.
In this module, you’ll practice using the Delftse methode grammar at the B1 level. You’ll learn to create and use regular verb tenses and practice with irregular verbs. You’ll learn to construct long sentences with the correct word order.
