veer | spring | This is a spring as in a coiled piece of wire. It also means feather. The season spring is lente. |
motorkap | bonnet (hood) | This is a car bonnet. It seems the word bonnet may be used in Dutch for the hat variety, but I've had trouble checking. |
arm | poor | |
bier | beer | |
dames | ladies | |
heel goed | very well | Here, we have goed again. We've had it earlier meaning right (correct) and alright and also in phrases such as 'Is alles goed?' (Is everything alright?) and 'Goede reis!' (Have a good journey!) |
