  • 2. 

    Translate 'I shall talk'. (praten)

    • Ik zal praten

    • Ik zullen praten

    • Ik zal praat

    Correct Answer
    A. Ik zal praten
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Ik zal praten" because it accurately translates the given phrase "I shall talk" into Dutch. "Ik" means "I", "zal" means "shall/will", and "praten" means "talk". Therefore, "Ik zal praten" is the correct translation.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Translate 'we shall listen'. (luisteren)

    • We zal luisteren

    • We zallen luisteren

    • We zullen luisteren

    Correct Answer
    A. We zullen luisteren
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "We zullen luisteren." In Dutch, the verb "luisteren" (to listen) is conjugated differently depending on the subject pronoun. In this case, the subject pronoun "we" (we) requires the conjugation "zullen" (shall). Therefore, the correct translation of "we shall listen" is "We zullen luisteren."

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Translate 'she shall fall'. (vallen)

    • Ze zal vallen

    • Ze zullen vallen

    • Ze zal val

    Correct Answer
    A. Ze zal vallen
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Ze zal vallen" because the question asks for the translation of "she shall fall" into Dutch. "Ze zal vallen" is the correct translation, as it means "she will fall" in English. The other options, "Ze zullen vallen" and "Ze zal val," do not accurately translate the given phrase.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Translate 'you shall pay'. (betalen)

    • Je zult betalen

    • Je zal betalen

    • Je zullen betalen

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Je zult betalen
    A. Je zal betalen
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Je zult betalen" and "Je zal betalen" because both phrases mean "you shall pay" in Dutch. The word "je" means "you" and "zult" or "zal" means "shall" or "will". "Betalen" means "to pay". The use of "zult" or "zal" depends on the context or personal preference, as both are commonly used in the Dutch language. "Je zullen betalen" is incorrect because "zullen" is the plural form of "shall" and does not match with the singular "je".
