SPEAKING ENGLISH WELL I have a Dutch friend who speaks English (0)... . I have BEAUTY always wondered how the Dutch manage to learn languages so (1) … . SUCCESS The Dutch, like the Germans, often speak English (2) … WELL than some native speakers or at least they seem to speak the language more (3) … CORRECT than some English people. If you want to speak English (4) … FLUENCY with a reasonable accent, you should listen to tapes as frequently as possible. There are no magic solutions but you (5) … SIMPLICITY have to work hard at the new language.
My Dutch friend's ability to speak English well has always impressed me. The Dutch seem to have a natural talent for languages, similar to the Germans. They often speak English better than some native speakers, or at least they appear to be more accurate in their use of the language. To achieve fluency and a reasonable accent in English, regular listening to tapes is essential. There are no shortcuts to success, just hard work and dedication to learning the new language.
