Wij werken in maart.

Both wij and we mean we.

• Wij is the fuller, more stressed form.
• We is the unstressed, very common everyday form.

So Wij werken in maart and We werken in maart both mean the same thing. Using wij can sound a little more emphatic, as in we, specifically.

Because the subject is wij (we), and with wij/we the verb takes the infinitive/base plural form in the present tense.

For werken (to work), the present tense is:

• ik werk = I work
• jij werkt = you work
• hij/zij/het werkt = he/she/it works
• wij werken = we work
• jullie werken = you all work
• zij werken = they work

So wij werken is the correct match.

It can mean either, depending on context.

Dutch simple present often covers both:

• we work
• we are working

So Wij werken in maart could mean:

• We work in March
• We are working in March

Usually the broader context tells you which is meant.

Dutch uses in with months, just like English:

• in januari = in January
• in maart = in March
• in de zomer = in the summer

So in maart is the normal way to say in March.

No. In Dutch, names of months are normally not capitalized.

So you write:

• maart
• januari
• augustus

This is different from English, where March is capitalized.

Yes, in this simple main clause it is very similar:

• Wij = subject
• werken = verb
• in maart = time expression

So the structure is:

subject + verb + time phrase

That said, Dutch often allows the time phrase to move to the front:

• In maart werken wij.
• In maart werken we.

If that happens, the verb still stays in second position, which is a very important Dutch rule.

Yes, absolutely. That is probably what you will hear most often in everyday speech.

• Wij werken in maart = slightly fuller or more emphatic
• We werken in maart = very common, natural spoken Dutch

Both are correct.

Not normally. Werken means to work, not to be employed in the sense of having a job contract.

So Wij werken in maart usually means:

• we do work in March
• we are on duty in March
• we will be working during March

If you want to emphasize employment status, Dutch would usually use a different wording, such as in dienst zijn or something more specific.

A rough English-friendly guide is:

• wij ≈ vay or wai with a Dutch w/v-like sound
• werken ≈ VER-kuh(n)
• in = short in
• maart ≈ maart with a long aa, somewhat like mahrt

A few notes:

• Dutch w is not exactly the English w.
• The r in werken and maart may sound different depending on accent.
• The -en ending in werken is often pronounced lightly in normal speech.

No, not in standard Dutch. Dutch normally requires the subject to be stated.

So you say:

• Wij werken in maart
• We werken in maart

You would not normally just say Werken in maart to mean We work in March, unless it is a note, heading, or some very informal shortened style.

Yes. That is correct Dutch.

When a different element comes first in a main clause, the finite verb still stays in second position:

• Wij werken in maart.
• In maart werken wij.

This is part of the Dutch verb-second pattern. In everyday speech, In maart werken we sounds especially natural.
