What to expect from Dutch audio
Dutch compounds and reduced conversational speech make sentence context important even when the individual sounds appear clear. The practical review targets are compound boundaries, reduced function words, names, regional speech, and English terms. Compound boundaries and short function words can be difficult in rapid connected speech.
Review the details that carry meaning
Names, regional pronunciation, and English code-switching should be checked through playback. Use word-level playback for compound boundaries, reduced function words, names, regional speech, and English terms; a correction is accepted only when the surrounding clause and project convention support it.
