pronunciatie van nederlandse taal

[cat315]

Dag Claud,
I am not sure how to pronounce words with this sound lacht (and lachten)
Could you please try to help? I heard this sound all week when I went to Amsterdam for the first time last week. I have been trying to learn Dutch for 4 months. I was really surprised how it really sounds ---- It sounds differently then on my Dutch language CD’s even though they have native speakers saying the words --- I guess it is just easier to hear sounds in person!
Also, what does lekker ding mean?
Dankjewel,
Cathleen
