Aligned with the official Inburgering exam format
Fill-in-the-blank exercises mirror the invuloefeningen used in the official NT2 and Inburgering exam. You read a short Dutch passage with several missing words and choose or type the word that best fits the context — exactly the format DUO uses to test your reading comprehension, grammar, and vocabulary together.
Each generated exercise follows the same conventions as exam day: passages stay within everyday topics (work, family, housing, health), blanks target high-frequency grammar (articles, prepositions, verb forms, connectors) and core vocabulary, and the difficulty scales cleanly across A2, B1, and B2. Practising in this format builds the pattern recognition you need to move quickly through the real exam.

Feedback
Incorrect
Blank 2 — naar. "naar" is the preposition of direction used after motion verbs like "gaan". "in" would describe location, not direction.
Incorrect
Blank 5 — heb. With the subject "ik" the verb "hebben" takes the first-person singular form "heb".
Correct
Blank 7 — omdat. "omdat" introduces a reason and sends the verb to the end of the clause — the right connector for explaining why.
Frequently asked questions
Is this official DUO feedback?
No. Fill the Gaps is a practice tool for Inburgering exam preparation. It provides feedback to help you improve your Dutch vocabulary and grammar, but it is not affiliated with DUO and does not provide official exam scores. Official scoring comes from the actual DUO test.
Can I practise for A2, B1, and B2 levels?
Yes. You can choose A2, B1, or B2 before each exercise. The vocabulary range, sentence length, and grammar targeted by the blanks all scale with the level you pick, so the exercise matches the section of the Inburgering or NT2 exam you are preparing for.
How does this prepare me for invuloefeningen on the exam?
The exercises follow the same format as the invuloefeningen used in the Inburgering and NT2 exam: a short Dutch passage with several blanks where you supply the missing word. Practising this format trains the reading-plus-grammar skill that DUO tests, so the real exercises feel familiar on exam day.
How accurate is the AI feedback?
The AI grades each blank against the correct answer and explains the grammar or vocabulary rule behind it. It is an approximate assessment based on the Inburgering exam criteria — while it may not match the exact DUO scoring process, it reliably identifies the rules and words you need to revise.
Can I use hints during the exercise?
Yes. You can reveal a short hint per blank when you are stuck — for example the word class, the first letter, or a grammar reminder. Hints are designed to keep you learning without giving away the answer outright.
Do I need a subscription?
You can try fill-in-the-blank practice for free to experience the feedback. A Pro subscription unlocks unlimited access to all exercises, AI feedback, and your full practice history across all Inburgering exam sections.
