verband

§ How to use 'verband' in a sentence

The Dutch word 'verband' is pretty flexible. It's a noun, and it mainly means 'connection' or 'link'. Think of it as how things relate to each other. You'll often see it used with certain prepositions that help clarify the type of connection being made.

§ 'Verband' with 'met' (with)

When you use 'verband' with 'met', you're talking about a connection *with* something or someone. This is a very common pairing. It implies a direct relationship or relevance.

Er is een duidelijk verband met zijn eerdere werk. (There is a clear connection with his earlier work.)

Ziet u een verband met deze gebeurtenis? (Do you see a link with this event?)

§ 'Verband' with 'tussen' (between)

When you want to express a connection *between* two or more specific things, 'tussen' is your go-to preposition. It highlights the relationship existing in the space or interaction of those items.

Er is een sterk verband tussen roken en longkanker. (There is a strong link between smoking and lung cancer.)

De rechter zag geen direct verband tussen de twee zaken. (The judge saw no direct connection between the two cases.)

§ 'In verband met' (in connection with / due to)

This is a very useful phrase. 'In verband met' means 'in connection with' or 'due to'. It often introduces a reason or a circumstance related to something else. It's a formal way of saying 'because of' or 'regarding'.

De vergadering is uitgesteld in verband met ziekte. (The meeting has been postponed due to illness.)

Zijn vertrek stond in verband met de recente controverses. (His departure was in connection with the recent controversies.)

§ 'In dat verband' (in that respect / in that context)

This phrase helps to refer back to something previously mentioned, establishing a connection to the ongoing conversation. It means 'in that respect' or 'in that context'. It's a useful conversational connector.

De economie groeit. In dat verband moeten we investeren. (The economy is growing. In that respect, we must invest.)

§ Verb phrases with 'verband'

'Verband' is often used with verbs to create common expressions. These are important to know as they frequently appear in Dutch.

  • Een verband leggen tussen... en... (to make a connection between... and...)

    Kun jij een verband leggen tussen deze feiten? (Can you make a connection between these facts?)

  • Verband houden met... (to be related to / to be connected with...)

    Deze problemen houden verband met de nieuwe regelgeving. (These problems are related to the new regulations.)

  • Geen verband zien tussen... en... (to see no connection between... and...)

    Ik zie geen verband tussen jouw argument en het onderwerp. (I see no connection between your argument and the topic.)

By getting comfortable with these common combinations, you'll sound much more natural when using 'verband' in your Dutch conversations and writing. Practice them regularly!

به‌راحتی اشتباه گرفته می‌شود

verband vs verband

This word has multiple meanings which can be confusing for learners. It can mean a connection/link, a bandage, or even a relationship/context.

The specific meaning depends heavily on the context of the sentence. For 'connection/link', think of it as how things relate to each other. For 'bandage', it's a physical dressing. For 'relationship/context', it refers to the broader situation.

Er is een duidelijk verband tussen roken en longkanker. (There is a clear connection between smoking and lung cancer.)

verband vs relatie

Often confused with 'verband' when trying to express a connection, but 'relatie' more specifically refers to a personal or professional relationship between people, or a functional relationship between entities.

'Verband' (connection/link) is broader, referring to how things are inherently tied. 'Relatie' is more about the interaction or bond between entities, especially people.

Zij heeft een goede relatie met haar collega's. (She has a good relationship with her colleagues.)

verband vs connectie

This is a direct borrowing from English 'connection' and is often used interchangeably with 'verband' in some contexts, but 'verband' can be more formal or encompass broader types of links.

'Connectie' is often used for social or technical links (e.g., 'internetverbinding' or 'sociale connectie'). 'Verband' can be more abstract or refer to inherent logical links.

Ik heb een goede connectie in de muziekwereld. (I have a good connection in the music world.)

verband vs samenhang

Learners might use this when they mean a logical connection or coherence, which is similar to a specific use of 'verband'.

'Samenhang' specifically refers to coherence, consistency, or how parts fit together to form a meaningful whole. 'Verband' can be a singular link.

Er is een duidelijke samenhang in zijn verhaal. (There is a clear coherence in his story.)

verband vs verbinding

Very close in meaning to 'verband' in some contexts, particularly for physical or technical links.

'Verbinding' often refers to a physical or technical link (e.g., a train connection, an internet connection). While 'verband' can also mean this, it's more commonly used for abstract links and relationships. 'Verband' is also the word for a 'bandage'.

De trein heeft een directe verbinding met de stad. (The train has a direct connection to the city.)
