Dutch is the official language of the Netherlands and is widely spoken in Amsterdam. While many locals are fluent in English, it is always appreciated when visitors make an effort to speak Dutch. Learning basic phrases like 'hello' (hallo), 'thank you' (dank je wel), and 'goodbye' (tot ziens) can go a long way in connecting with the locals and immersing yourself in the culture. Whether you're navigating the city streets, ordering at a restaurant, or shopping at local markets, knowing a bit of Dutch can enhance your experience in Amsterdam. Embrace the language and enjoy the genuine interactions you'll have with the friendly people of this vibrant city.
