| Dialogue |
| Marleen: Wie was dat meisje met wie je gisteren op de markt liep? |
| Paul: Dat was Lisa. |
| Marleen: Is dat die vrouw die nieuw op kantoor is? |
| Paul: Ja, zij is die nieuwe vrouw. |
| Marleen: Vonden jullie de markt leuk? |
| Paul: Lisa vond hem erg leuk, ik vind die markt op het plein het leukst. |
| Marleen: Je bedoelt de jaarmarkt. Ik houd ook van markten. Ik ga twee maal in de week naar de markt om verse groenten en fruit te kopen. |
| Paul: Op zondag is er een rommelmarkt. De kerk organiseert die. Het is om geld in te zamelen voor een nieuw orgel. |
| Marleen: Die kunnen we samen bezoeken. Er is op zaterdag ook een braderie in het winkelcentrum. |
| Paul: Goed idee. Ik wist niet dat jij zoveel naar de markt gaat. |
| Marleen: Het is goedkoper en de produkten zijn verser dan in de supermarkt. |

| Judith: We can visit that together. On Saturday there is also a fair in the shopping mall. |
| Paul: Goed idee. Ik wist niet dat jij zoveel naar de markt gaat. |
| Judith: Good idea. I didn't know that you go to the market so much. |
| Marleen: Het is goedkoper en de produkten zijn verser dan in de supermarkt. |
| Judith: It is cheaper and the produce is fresher than in the supermarket. |
| POST CONVERSATION BANTER |
| Judith: Okay, let’s talk about markets. Market stalls date back to antiquity. The word comes from the Latin word “mercatus”. Roman conquerors were in the Netherlands for more than five centuries, and they created places where buyers and sellers could meet and trade. Nowadays, most villages have their own market. Towns and cities have several. These markets can be daily or weekly events. |
| Peter: Yes there are different markets. A “jaarmarkt” (year market) is a market that is held once a year. They were very important because these “jaarmarkten” were a place not only to sell cattle and other goods, but also to meet a future partner. |
| Judith: These markets were usually started by churches and could last several days. Nowadays they are organized by local town councils and have a festive character. |
| Peter: Another market that is popular is as “rommelmarkt” (flea market) is a market where everyone can sell their secondhand things. |
| Judith: These flea markets can be held inside or outside, and people can rent stalls for one day to sell their belongings. |
| Peter: Another kind of market is a “braderie”.This is a little bit more festive and there is a lot of entertainment around, there is food. Everyone, if they have registered for it, can take part in a “braderie”. “Braderieën” can take place anywhere and anytime but the most commonly are held during the spring and summer with music and entertainment. |
| Judith: The "braderieën" are comparable to American “fairs”. |

| KEY VOCABULARY AND PHRASES |
| Judith: Let's have a closer look at the usage for some of the words and phrases from this lesson. |
| Peter: The first word we’ll look at is.... |
| 1: The word “markt” (market) usually means a market that is held every day or once a week, and a place where people can buy fresh produce. The word “supermarkt” is derived from this; meaning a place where you can buy an abundance of goods. |
| 2: Note that the word "markt" is grammatically masculine. This means that people will refer to the market as "hij" and "hem" in Dutch -- "Lisa vond hem erg leuk" means that Lisa found the market really nice. Obviously the market isn't male; it's just the grammar that forces people to use the male pronoun for masculine words like "de markt". |
| Grammar Point |
| Grammar: The focus of this lesson are the relative pronouns |
| Judith: A relative clause is a clause that begins with a relative pronoun. In English, these pronouns are "who", "which", "whom", "whose", and "that". Relative pronouns refer to a noun or other word earlier in the sentence, and the entire clause gives information about that earlier word. |
| Peter: The easiest Dutch relative pronouns are "die" and "dat". "die" is used for de-words in the singular and all plural words. And de-words are both masculine or feminine. "Dat" is only used for het-words in singular. |
| Judith: So in case of doubt, use "die", because you're more likely to be right. Peter, can you give us some example sentences with these relative pronouns? |
| Peter: Yes! |
| 1: De man die daar zit, is mijn vader. (The man, who is sitting there, is my father.) |
| 2: De vrouw die naast hem zit, is mijn moeder. (The woman, who is sitting next to him, is my mother.) |
| 3: De mensen die daar wonen, zijn Nederlanders. (The people, who are living there, are Dutch people. |
| 4: Het boek dat ik lees, is heel goed. (The book, which I'm reading, is very good.) |
| Judith: When the relative clause starts with a preposition, special rules apply. Then you have to use "wie" for people. |
| Peter: For example, we say "De man, met wie ik spreek, is mijn vader." (The man, with whom I'm speaking, is my father.) |
| Peter: Please note that it's "met wie" and not "met die". After a preposition, we use "wie" for people. |
| Judith: And for objects that are not people, the relative pronoun becomes a contraction of "waar" and the preposition. |
| Peter: For example "waar" and "op" becomes one word "waarop". An example sentence is "De tafel, waarop de vaas staat, is groot." (The table, on which the vase is standing, is big.) |
