- Zus - sister
- Broers en zussen - siblings
Children

Extended family
In addition to the immediate family members mentioned above, it can also be useful to know Dutch words for extended family members:
Grandparents
- Opa - grandfather
- Oma - grandmother
- Grootvader - grandfather
- Grootmoeder - grandmother
Aunts and Uncles
- Tante - aunt
- Oom - uncle
- Tantes en ooms - aunts and uncles
Cousins
- Neef - male cousin
- Nicht - female cousin
- Neven en nichten - cousins
Tips for memorizing family vocabulary
To help you memorize the Dutch family-related vocabulary, here are some useful tips:
- Practice with flashcards: Write the Dutch word on one side and the English equivalent on the other side. Test yourself by looking at the Dutch word and trying to remember the translation.
- Associate the words with images: Create a mental image of each family member's word association in your mind, like picturing your father standing next to you while you say "vader."
- Use mnemonics to remember difficult words: Make up a funny story or sentence that includes the Dutch word for the specific family member. For example: "My uncle Oom loves to eat apples."
Conclusion
Learning the Dutch vocabulary for family members is essential for those who want to connect with Dutch speakers and have everyday conversations. By practicing regularly, using flashcards or mental association, anyone can master these words.
