ExercisesEach topic in the Subject index is accompanied by interactive, self-correcting exercises. To view the exercises for a specific grammar topic, enter the Subject index and click on the appropriate link in the left banner. The exercises open in a separate, resizable window. Further down this page, you find a list of all exercises in the Advanced Dutch Grammar.
The exercises were developed with Hot Potatoes educational software. They include multiple-choice, short-answer, matching/ordering and gap-fill exercises. They are all self-explanatory and self-correcting, providing model answers and feedback. We advise you to read the instructions for each exercise very carefully. Automatic scoring is included for each exercise. Note that an exercise will only submit a result if it is properly completed: exercises are considered completed when all the questions have been answered correctly. Most exercises can be completed multiple times: reload the exercise/page for more and new questions and tasks. Practical tip before you start: click here to find out how to install a Dutch keyboard.
