* Basic Van Dale Dutch Dictionary. The first dictionary for adults intended for children aged 10 and up. The world changes, so does the language. When the previous edition of the Van Dale Basic Dutch Dictionary was published, we didn't know about air fryers yet, we hadn't heard of oat milk yet. A large number of new keywords, meanings, and example sentences have been added to this edition. What the Dikke Van Dale is for adults, this Basic Van Dale is for children from 10 years old. For nearly forty years, the Van Dale Basic Dutch has been the most used dictionary for young people in primary school and at home. You will find all the words and their meanings that children of this age need.
