Example

De brede rivier stroomt rustig door de stad.
The wide river flows calmly through the city.
Pronunciation: Duh BRAY-duh ree-VEER STROHmt RUS-tig door duh stat
Grammar: "Rivier" is a de-word (de rivier). The verb "stroomt" (flows) agrees with the singular subject, and "door" (through) takes no extra preposition before "de stad".
