Learn Dutch: We geven elkaar goed advies. - We give each other good advice.

Elkaar means "each other". Here, it acts as the indirect object, meaning it is the receiver of the action. Just like in English, you can place it right after the verb without needing a preposition like "to": We geven elkaar... (We give each other...).

Why is it goed advies and not goede advies?

Advies is a het-word (het advies). When a het-word is used without a definite article (like het) or a demonstrative pronoun (like dit or dat) in front of it, the adjective before it drops the -e ending. Because we are just saying "good advice" in a general sense, it stays goed advies.

Can I use a preposition and say We geven goed advies aan elkaar?

Yes, you can! Just like in English ("We give good advice to each other"), you can use the preposition aan (to) and put elkaar at the end. However, the shorter version used in this sentence is much more common and natural in everyday Dutch.

Is advies uncountable in Dutch like it is in English?
