How these two languages compare, and what it means for your translations.
Hebrew uses the Hebrew script while Dutch uses the Latin script. Hebrew reads right-to-left while Dutch reads left-to-right, so the direction of the text flips during translation. Because the two do not share an alphabet, translated output cannot be sounded out from the original spelling — copy the result directly rather than trying to transcribe it.
Hebrew belongs to the Afro-Asiatic family while Dutch belongs to the Indo-European family. With no shared ancestry there are few cognates to fall back on, so idioms and fixed expressions rarely map word-for-word. Short, literal sentences translate more accurately than figurative ones between these two.
Both languages follow subject-verb-object (SVO) order, so clauses usually keep their shape during translation. Words tend to land in a similar position in the sentence, which makes it easier to check a translation against the original even without fluency.
