Video lesson 6 is about traffic and buildings in Dutch. More in detail: vocabulary about instrastructure (roads, highways, airport), means of transportation (such as car, train, airplane), and type of buildings (supermarket, office, school). The Netherlands has a very high population density. Rotterdam is the biggest port of Europe and Schiphol one of the largest airports. Efficient use of every square meter is very important – so people can quickly travel from home to their work (and back).
