i've got a few tips to increase your vocabulary in dutch drastically
with words in english that end -ical or -ic just change it to -isch:
this works 90% of the time
alfabetisch, drastisch, automatisch
some exceptions: classical --> klassiek, public --> openbaar
but in general when in doubt, use this trick
same goes for words in english that end in -tion, just change that to tie (pronounced almost the same as the english see)
this doesn't work always either, but often it does
and last but not least: learn false friends.
