How to Stay Motivated When Life Gets Tough

Tý phải lòng một anh chàng nha sĩ trẻ, đẹp trai. Thế nên cô thường lấy lý do đi nhổ răng để lén lút đến gặp anh ta. Một hôm, chàng nha sĩ buồn rầu nói:
- Anh nghĩ chúng ta nên dừng lại thôi, chắc chồng em có thể đã bắt đầu nghi ngờ rồi.
Tý ngạc nhiên:
- Làm gì có chuyện đó, chúng ta đã hẹn hò được một năm nay rồi mà chồng em có nói gì đâu.
Chàng nha sĩ khẽ lắc đầu:
- Nhưng em còn có một cái răng thôi, lần sau biết lấy lý do gì để đến gặp anh nữa chứ?

Soms vertellen studenten me dat de Nederlandse taal één van de meeste complexen talen ter wereld is. De reden die studenten me dan geven die aan de basis ligt van deze complexiteit is het bestaan van de verschillende lidwoorden. Het verschil tussen ‘de’ of ‘het’ is voor de meeste studenten van het Nederlands niet altijd onmiddellijk duidelijk.
