You Dutchies are banking in on a lot of unmoderated spam in there. Some people might want in on it!
I say: On with the Dutch lessons!

Hmm, feels surprisingly good to post so much again in such a short time period (I consider the term "spam" utterly unappropriate, ignorant, and derogatory; indeed)...

kind like in:Originally Posted by Caius Flaminius
Thank you very much indeed, that's very kind of you.
A child is kind when he or she helps an old lady to cross the road.
But not like in:
That's rare kind of animal, there are only 5000 left.
Kind in the meaning of a type.
Anyway it will be hard to talk without knowing how to conjugate verbs in dutch. Now let's start with the dutch variant of to be. = (te) zijn. "Zijn" is, like to be in english, an irregular verb. We'll start in the simple present, the "OTT" in dutch.
Ik ben = I am
Jij bent = you are
Hij/zij/het is = he/she/it is
Wij zijn = we are
Jullie zijn = you are
Zij zijn = they are
Now a regular verbs, they're all the same in the ott.
for example "zitten" (=to sit):
ik zit (drop the -en and drop the last letter too, if the last letter is double and right behind an a, u, i or o.)
=I sit
jij zit (a "t" is added unless there's already a "t" for example springen=> jij springt, however a "t" is added after a "d" even tough you can't hear it.)
=you sit
Hij zit (same comment)
Wij zitten (always the infinitive for all plural form's in the simple present.)
=we sit
jullie zitten=you sit (plur.)
zij zitten= they sit.
And that's it.
