Vowels: The Dutch language contains short vowels and long vowels. Vowels are pronounced short when they are written in single (i.e. a, e, i, o, u) and when the word contains only one syllable or when the vowel is followed by at least two consonants. Furthermore, short vowels are never the last letter in a word.owels: The Dutch language contains short vowels and long vowels.

Hand-clasping: The myth. When people clasp their hands, almost all have a strong preference; either the right thumb is on top (R) or the left thumb is on top (L). Hand-clasping is sometimes used to illustrate basic genetics; the myth is that hand-clasping is controlled by one gene with two alleles, and the allele for L is dominant.
