Why Dutch names trip up English speakers

  • IJ / ij is the long-i ‘ahy’ — van Dijk → van DAHYK.
  • The Dutch G is a hard throaty sound English lacks; we soften it to a ‘g’ or ‘kh’.
  • J is a ‘y’ — de Jong → duh YAHNG.
  • OE is ‘oo’ and UI is roughly ‘oy’ — there’s no exact English vowel for it.
