The key to
learning Dutch
is learning Dutch phrases like how to say “goodbye” and its many versions. Because as you know there
are different ways to say
bye bye bye
in Dutch. There are formal ways. There are informal ways. There are cool ways too, or something like
that.
What’s even more fun is that you can say these different Dutch goodbyes to others even if they don’t
speak Dutch. It would be just a way to
practice your Dutch
and share with them how goodbye can be said in a different way. Okay, all that bit sounds a little
redundant, but I know you know what I mean. Anyway, you should try any one of these farewell
greetings today, tomorrow, or whenever you remember them. Fun fact: whenever you say “doei” or “dag”
or other Dutch sayings you increase your aura points.
