Get targeted translation solutions optimized for your specific target locale
Dutch is a West Germanic language native to the Netherlands and Northern Belgium (also known as Flanders). It is the third most widely spoken Germanic Language right after its close relatives German and English.
As an official language of the European Union, Dutch is spoken by approximately 90 percent of the population of the Netherlands. While 60 percent of the Belgian population also has Dutch as its native language, this variant of the language is known as Flemish.
Contrary to popular belief, Flemish is more than a word marking the Belgian region of Flanders. There is also a distinct difference in pronunciation, vocabulary, and use of formal register, and you will need specialized linguists to effectively target each audience.
While the Netherlands and Belgium hold the largest population of Dutch speakers, the language is also spoken in Suriname, South Africa, and a handful of Caribbean nations including Aruba and Curacao.
Dutch Language Translation Challenges
- You can’t apply a generic Dutch translation to all of the Dutch-speaking locales. Each region has its own dialect. If you don’t speak directly to them, you are creating a distance between your audience and your product by using a translation that sounds unnatural to them.
- For example, Dutch as spoken in the Netherlands and Belgium, have a different use of formal registers. In Dutch, “you” actually translates as both “je”, informal, and “u”, formal.
- In the Netherlands, the use of “u” is almost extinct even in formal situations, in Belgium the usage sneaks into both formal and informal situations. While the use of “u” can sound archaic to a native from the Netherlands, improper use of “je” could be experienced as too familiar for Belgians in certain situations.
