How to talk about space and measurements in Dutch

Free cheat sheet download

In the Netherlands, measuring is important. Houses, apartments and rooms are small and furniture has to fit. 😉.

I created a new story about Victor and Maria buying furniture.

With this story, I also made a cheat sheet with the most useful Dutch words for talking about space and measurements.

You don’t need difficult math — you just need the right words.

The 4 key words are:

diep – breed – hoog – lang

With just these four words, you can talk about space in most everyday situations.

Magic questions

Hoe groot is ...? Past het (wel)?

How big is it? Does it fit?

These simple questions save time, stress, and wrong purchases.

Real-life situations

• buying a table

• measuring a room

• checking if something fits
