Prepositions of Place

In this lesson, we cover prepositions of place, which are used to describe the position or location of something. Understanding these prepositions can help express where something is located, where someone is going, or where an action is taking place in Dutch.

Some common Dutch prepositions of place include:

  • op (on)
  • in (in)
  • naast (next to)
  • tussen (between)
  • achter (behind)
  • voor (in front of)
  • onder (under)

These prepositions often come before a noun to indicate location.

Let's incorporate these prepositions into our sentences while continuing to use previously learned vocabulary and grammar.
