Beetje helps you learn beginner Dutch (A1) a little every day, the honest way. Open the app and your plan is already made: a few reviews that are due, plus your next lesson. No endless menus, no guessing what to study next. WHAT'S INSIDE β€’ A structured Dutch A1 course, 400+ words across everyday themes: meeting people, family, home, food, health, clothes, travel, and work. β€’ Spaced repetition that brings words back right before you forget them. β€’ Dutch-specific practice other apps skip: de or het, spelling, word order, and building sentences. β€’ Listening and reading with short mini-stories. β€’ A personal dictionary, look up any Dutch or English word and save your own. β€’ Hear Dutch words and sentences with natural pronunciation and an on-device fallback. SIX INTERFACE LANGUAGES Use Beetje in English, Dutch, Spanish, Polish, Chinese or Persian. The Dutch course content always stays Dutch. BUILT TO RESPECT YOU β€’ The core course and review work offline. β€’ No ads, no trackers, no selling your data. β€’ Optional Sign in with Apple to back up and sync across your devices. β€’ Delete your account and all your data any time, right inside the app. "Beetje" means "a little" in Dutch. Learn a little, every day, and it adds up. Note: optional AI features (short stories and examples) send text to an AI service to generate content. You can use the whole app without them.
