Questions & Answers about Trainen jullie op zondag?
Why do we use op before zondag?
In Dutch, the preposition op is used to indicate that something happens on a specific day of the week, exactly like in English. Therefore, op zondag translates to on Sunday.
Why isn't the word zondag capitalized?
Unlike in English, days of the week, months, and seasons are never capitalized in Dutch unless they happen to be the very first word of a sentence.
Why does the sentence start with the verb Trainen?
This is a yes/no question. To form a yes/no question in Dutch, you swap the subject (jullie) and the conjugated verb (trainen). If it were a regular statement, the order would simply be Jullie trainen op zondag.
Why is the verb trainen in its full form ending in -en?
The subject of the sentence is jullie, which is the plural form of you. In the present tense, plural subjects like wij (we), jullie (you all), and zij (they) always take the full infinitive form of the verb.
