A book is like a TARDIS. It's bigger on the inside than on the out.
It can also do time travel.

So I thought Dutch had a word order similar to English, with the adjectives in front of the noun. But then I see sentences like this from NOS:
Mysterie knalgroen kanaal Venetië opgelost
So the adjective indicating that the canal is "Venetian", is coming after the noun, even though two other adjectives came first. Is this typical, and is it usually the location that comes after?
Thank you!

Vandaag leer ik jullie hoe je vragen kan stellen
In the same sentence, we have the audience referred to as "jullie" and "je". Is this typical? I guess I would expect it to be consistent:
Vandaag leer ik jij hoe je vragen kan stellen
or
Vandaag leer ik jullie hoe jullie vragen kan stellen
Dank je wel !
Researchers at Virginia Tech have found a way to upcycle plastic into soap. Around 120 grams to 130 grams of plastic can make 100 grams of soap.

Apparently lots of people want to learn Thai. But I didn't see a community like "learndutch". Learndutch is subreddit where people learning Dutch can ask questions about words, grammar, and phrases they're having trouble with.
Feddit.nl seems like the obvious place to host such a community.
Dank je wel!
