Is there a non-shitter link?

The second person during a question is still no special rule for dt. It's still very regular. For all regular verbs it's just stem (without the +t).

Examples:

Praten -> stem = praat -> praat jij? Worden -> stem = word -> word jij? Surfen -> stem = surf -> surf jij?

No irregularity for stems ending in d.

But again, there is no special exception for dt. Again it's the regular rule applied: second person conjugation in questions is just the stem for regular verbs.

This gets really confusing if you're from Limburg. In Limburgish, "daan" (the cognate to Dutch "dan") only exists as the time indicator. With comparisons the correct Limburgish is to use "es" for differences (e.g. "Jan is groeter es Maria", "John is bigger than Mary"), and "wie" for equivalents (e.g "Jan is eve aajd wie Maria", "John is as old as Mary"). Now "es" is cognate to Dutch "als", but using it in Dutch as in Limburgish is wrong. So yeah this gets confusing.

That English natives have so much trouble distinguishing effect from affect keeps surprising me.

As for Dutch, the dt-issue is presented as if it is this hugely complicated set of rules. While in reality it is dead simple. Third person in the present time is ALWAYS conjugated as stem+t for regular verbs, except in ONE case: when the stem already ends in t. Dt isn't special, it's just the rule applied to all stems.

Plasterk is ook nogal van het padje gevallen na zijn ministerschap. Van Strien leek me eerlijk gezegd capabeler.

Wordt een interessante formatie.

Traditioneel links heeft de eigen achterban decennia verloochend.

En het klimaatbeleid treft met name de gewone burger in plaats van de echte vervuiler. Dat voelt oneerlijk voor veel mensen.

Ik ben waarschijnlijk wat rechtser dan de doorsnee Lemmyer - ooit nog een keer een blauwe maandag lid geweest van de VVD (we zijn allemaal wel jong en dom geweest) en deze keer heel lang getwijfeld tussen NSC en Timmermans.

Ik snap de beweegredenen van mensen, maar dat maakt de uitkomst er niet minder schrikbarend onder.
