Questions & Answers about Deze bakker verkoopt vers brood en heerlijke croissants.
The sentence follows the typical Dutch SVO structure.
• Subject: "Deze bakker" (this baker)
• Verb: "verkoopt" (sells)
• Object: "vers brood en heerlijke croissants" (fresh bread and delicious croissants)
Dutch adjectives are inflected based on the noun’s number and definiteness:
• "Brood" is a singular, neuter, and uncountable noun used without an article; therefore, the adjective "vers" remains uninflected.
• "Croissants" is a plural noun; adjectives modifying plural nouns take an -e ending, hence "heerlijke."
Each adjective directly describes its following noun:
• "Vers" describes "brood" (bread). Since "brood" is an indefinite singular neuter noun, no -e ending is added.
• "Heerlijke" describes "croissants" (croissants), a plural noun, so the adjective takes the -e ending as required in Dutch.
