Dus, iemand die pleinvrees heeft kan zeggen: "Ik kan me niet voorstellen me aan iemand voor te stellen." 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

dat is grappig!! Leren = learn / teach Therefore you can say: de leerlingen leren wat de leraren leren This is : "The students learn what the teachers learn" or "The students learn what the teachers teach" or "The students teach what the teachers learn" or "The students teach what the teachers teach" haha!! 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I think an important point in telling the difference between the two meanings of "leren" is the indirect object of the verb. If you were to simply say "Ik leer Nederlands" I would always without exception read it as "I learn/study Dutch" because in Dutch you cannot simply teach something. You always teach something to someone. This is why "I teach Dutch" would never be translated as "Ik leer Nederlands" but rather as "Ik geef Nederlands (op een school)" or "Ik ben Nederlands leraar." Same thing with "I taught myself" which would be "Ik heb het mezelf (aan)geleerd" and never "Ik heb mezelf geleerd" (You learned yourself??). So in the sentence you mentioned the absence of an indirect object is what makes me read "De leerlingen leren wat de leraren leren" as "The students learn what the teachers learn." If you wanted to say "The students learn what the teachers teach" you would have to say "De leerlingen leren wat de leraren hen leren" to clarify what you mean. 5 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Oeps, loop ik als een debiel Engels te spreken op de Nederlandse discussiepagina. Sorry, mensen.

Haha verontschuldigt je niet want jouwe uitleg was heel interessant en leerzaam, en als je het in het Nederlands
zou geschreven hebben, dan volgens mij zou ik het niet helemaal goed begrepen hebben!... 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Ja, Reneemona, jouw posts zijn altijd heel behulpzaam en interessant. Dat kan gebeuren, dat je in de verkeerde taal iets schrijft zonder bewsut ervan te worden, doe ik ook zelf vaak genoeg b.v ik dacht dat ik in het Duits had geschreven, maar het was eigenlijk in het Nederlands. 1 person has voted this message useful |
