  • Dutch language devoices all obstruents at the ends of words, which presents a problem for Dutch speakers when learning English. This is partly reflected in the spelling, the voiced "z" in plural huizen becomes huis ('house') in singular. And duiven becomes duif ('dove'). The other cases, are always written with the voiced consonant, although a devoiced one is actually pronounced, e.g. the voiced "d" in plural baarden is retained in singular spelling baard ('beard'), but pronounced as [baːrt], and plural ribben has singular rib ('rib'), pronounced as [rɪp] . Because of assimilation, often the initial consonant of the next word is usually also devoiced, e.g. het vee ('the cattle') is /(ɦ)ətfeː/. Some regions (Amsterdam, Friesland) have almost completely lost the voiced fricatives /v/, /z/ and /ɣ/. Further south these phonemes are certainly present in the middle of a word. Compare e.g. logen and loochen [loːɣən] vs. [loːxən]. In the South (i.e. Zeeland, Brabant and Limburg) and in Flanders the contrast is even greater because the <g> is palatal. ('soft g'): [loːʝən] vs. [loːçən] . The final 'n' of the plural ending -en is usually not pronounced (as in Afrikaans where it is also dropped in the written language), except in the North East (Low Saxon) and the South West (East and West Flemish) where the ending becomes a syllabic n sound.
