Muisje, boontje, beetje is about diminutives with special meanings. There are a lot of diminutives. Usually, diminutives refer to a small version of something. For example, a "hondje" is a small dog and a "stoeltje" is a small chair. But with many diminutives, it's not so simple. Consider "sprookje" (fairy tale), for example; the root form "sprook" does not exist. The same applies to expressions and sayings such as "huisje, boompje, beestje"; the diminutives cannot be replaced by their roots.
In Muisje, boontje, beetje, more than 1000 such diminutives are described. The descriptions, explanations and facts help to better understand the different meanings and to look critically at the Dutch language. Furthermore, the many examples in this book make reading a feast of recognition. For language students, teachers and many others who work with language, professionally or otherwise; highly recommended!
