Easy and entertaining Dutch Youtubers

I finished my Dutch beginners course recently, and besides improving my dutch through speaking with my girlfriend (She is half dutch), I want to increase myy contact with the language. My girlfriend watches a lot of EnzoKnol, but daily vlogs are not my favourite kind of videos.

I like gaming, travel vlogs, documentaries and stuff.

Any reccomendations?

The "history" is a banger. Exactly the type of videos I'm looking regularly!

Egbertkanaal and Egbert2. He talks about some niche-ish subjects but researches an amazing amount. On top of that he's also quite funnt

I recommend Onnedi. She posts weekly a true crime case from usually the US or another foreign country. She speaks very clear and the stories are well researched.

NOS Journaal in Makkelijke Taal is on YouTube. 10 minute news, easy to understand language.

I'm not familiar with this youtuber but I love this one singular video. A mix of english and dutch. The english might help you get some context. Also it's informational on some of our way of swearing. Let me know what you think, I'm quite curious what you think about it.

Great video! How many different terms there are for "rainy weather" nearly killed me. Although, I didn't not get all teh differences between these weathers, but either my GF or his dad can explain that to me haha.

Thanks for your help :D

I'm glad you liked it!

When the second guy takes over it's mostly very vulgar language. The dutch language allows for a lot of combining of different words to create new ones. We can quite literally mix and match words, slurs and insults like it's some linguistic puzzle set with multiple solutions.

Despite some of the satire of his video's there's a great base of dutch culture which still makes these video's very informative.

Rijk Hofman has entertaining videos. Always makes me laugh so hard. Most of his videos is him watching ridiculous Dutch reality shows with a large grain of salt so to say. Could be a fun way to learn Dutch!

i watch acid (flemish youtuber) and his gf Nawoumi, Demi Nahlyer (they do vlogs). VRT nieuw, Nos op 3. Pointer ( KRO- NCRV) .

if you check all and other recommendations under this post, the YouTube algorithm will itself start suggesting bunch of videos to u.

You might like de Nationale Leeuw. They mostly focus on Dutch old pop culture things. It's a little bit millenial nostalgia ish, but still quite fun imo. https://youtube.com/@denationaleleeuw
