Essay Structure & Signal Words
A well-structured Dutch essay follows the these-kern-conclusie (thesis-body-conclusion) pattern, connected by signal words.
Inleiding (Introduction) — State your thesis:
- In dit betoog zal ik beargumenteren dat... — In this essay I will argue that...
- De stelling luidt dat... — The thesis states that...
Kern (Body) — Use signal words to connect arguments:
- Ten eerste... Ten tweede... Ten derde... — Firstly... Secondly... Thirdly...
- Bovendien (moreover), Daarnaast (in addition)
- Daarentegen (on the other hand), Echter (however)
- Desalniettemin (nevertheless), Hoewel (although)
Important: After signal words in first position, the verb comes second (inversion):
- Bovendien is het belangrijk om... — Moreover, it is important to...
- Daarentegen kan men stellen dat... — On the other hand, one can argue that...
Conclusie (Conclusion) — Summarize and conclude:
- Samenvattend kan worden gesteld dat... — In summary, it can be stated that...
- Al met al... — All in all...
- Op grond van het bovenstaande... — On the basis of the above...
Signal words create coherence and guide the reader through your argument.

자주 하는 실수
Bovendien het is belangrijk om...Bovendien is het belangrijk om...After bovendien in first position, inversion is required: verb before subject.
Desalniettemin, het blijft een feit.Desalniettemin blijft het een feit.Signal words cause inversion — the verb directly follows, no comma separating them.
Samenvattend, ik kan stellen dat...Samenvattend kan ik stellen dat...After samenvattend, inversion: kan comes before ik.
In dit betoog ik zal beargumenteren dat...In dit betoog zal ik beargumenteren dat...After in dit betoog (adverbial phrase), the verb zal precedes the subject ik.
Ten eerste, ten tweede, ten derde.Ten eerste... Ten tweede... Ten derde...These are separate paragraph starters, not a comma-separated list. Each introduces a new point.
