Common questions

What is galgje?

Galgje is the Dutch name for hangman (galg means gallows). You guess a hidden Dutch word one letter at a time. Every wrong guess draws another part of the figure — solve the word before the drawing is complete.

How does it help me learn Dutch?

Guessing a Dutch word from an English hint makes you recall spelling and connect it to meaning, and the wrong guesses teach you which letters are common in Dutch. All the words are everyday A2-level vocabulary.

Can I use my keyboard?

Yes — type letters on your keyboard or tap the on-screen keys. Used letters turn green if they're in the word and red if they aren't.
