it is the best. it has really helped me with my Dutch pronunciation.
I was using it until I noticed an accent. As I'm not familiar with dialects and accents in Dutch, I can't identify it. I only know that it's not the same as I'd call the more or less standard Dutch pronunciation. For example: "Samenkomen om dingen te bespreken" sounded weird. If you've listened to Dutch audios, podcasts, and radio programs, you'd know what I mean. Having said this, I think it's a nice effort on the part of the app-maker, especially because it's free.
I love this app! Great for learning Dutch spoken with a Flemish accent (Dutch spoken in Belgium). I personally prefer the Flemish accent so this was perfect for me, as it can be hard to find Flemish resources. I love the slowly spoken short stories and how they break down the pronunciation.
Dankuwel, wat een mooie app! I wish it went more in-depth though, like helping with consonants, and going into how some common dialects can differ from standard varieties of Dutch. Excited for updates like that. Until then, I can only say it somewhat satisfied my needs.
Not sure if it is intended, but the lady who pronounces "voeding" does so with an obvious Russian accent. Judging by the a few other comments, I think they let non-native speakers pronounce the words which is great, but it also defeats the purpose of the app. I will give it another go, but if there is more accent, then this app is not for me as I want to hear the correct pronunciation without any foreign accent...
