Grammar

There are a lot of irregular verbs (onregelmatige werkwoorden). You don’t have to know all of

them (that would be impossible…), but you need to know some.

A nice way to study them is if you make a song of them. There’s this guy who’s made a rap.

Please listen to the song and read the lyrics.

Afterwards, please highlight or underline the verbs that are also in the list of words

that you have to study!
