Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

I have a c.d by a Dutch artist named Andre Hazes. The name is Dit Is Wat Ik Wil. Any idea what that means? ( something like this is what it is??) Thanks for response Twitch

According to this online translator it means "This is what I want". But obviously I dont speak Dutch and know that the translator show some odd meanings sometimes, so cannot guarantee the saying is correct.

Kinda cool to play around with though, let us know what the cd is like but in the meantime...."Ik wil naar Amsterdam gaan!" or something along those lines

Nice link Valo. Should be able to put that to some good use.

steak & kindney or minced beef and onion ?

yes, good link Valo... it don't translate everything evrytime though... I had to take a stab at your new signature Doog... right 1st time!

I'll take just about any meat/pastry combination (preferably with boiled potatoes and peas).

Tried it in a few different languages (could have used the Greek or Russian to really throw you off)

Kinda wish I had now. Would have been fun.

Keep the phrases simple and use appropriate punctuation to indicate precisely what you want to say (is it a question etc) and you'll be fine.

Have actualy had the c.d a few years, got it on one of my trips to A'dam. Was making copy for a friend who has a blues band. c,d, preatty good, he sings some songs in english and some in Dutch, mainly amerikan r&b. Thanks for translation. put that link under fav.

hey Twitch... how's your computer skills then... any chance of you uploading a sample of the kinda music this is... ??

Rez, will give it a shot, but am going to have to wait for a friend to help me next week ( http://www.andrehazes.nl/page/jukebox )this is a link to his website and there are some songs on it that can be played, but I don't see the album ( c.d ) I have. I just googled it a found a lot of links so check it out ( this is the long way of saying duh...... don't have to confuser skills, but am learning.) I just copied and pasted that link, and I couldn't have done that a month ago. Between you and my daughter making that myspace page and me playing around with it I am sloooowllyyy learning a few things ( p.s. am realy wasted at the moment, gave Fat Freddy a work out )

Actually I think "This is what I want" is a more appropriat translation
