Usage notes
[edit]
  • Ons is the only possessive determiner in contemporary Dutch that inflects for gender and number. It becomesonze before masculines, feminines and all plurals.
  • As an independent possessive pronoun it becomesde/het onze as well, but this in line with the general rules (cf.mijne,jouwe etc.).

1) Not as common in written language.
2) Inflected as anadjective.
3) Inprescriptivist use, used only as direct object (accusative).
4) Inprescriptivist use, used only as indirect object (dative).
5) Archaic. Nowadays used for formal, literary or poetic purposes, and in fixed expressions.
6) To differentiate from the singulargij,gelle (object formelle) and variants are commonly used colloquially in Belgium. Archaic forms aregijlieden andgijlui ("you people").		7)Zich is preferred if the reflexive pronoun immediately follows the subject pronounu, e.g.Meldt u zich aan! 'Log in!', and if the subject pronounu is used with a verb form that is identical with the third person singular but different from the informal second person singular, e.g.U heeft zich aangemeld. 'You have logged in.' Onlyu can be used in an imperative if the subject pronoun is not overt, e.g.Meld u aan! 'Log in!', whereu is the reflexive pronoun. Otherwise, bothu andzich are equally possible, e.g.U meldt u/zich aan. 'You log in.'

Etymology 3

Noun

[edit]

ons n (pluralonsenoronzen,diminutiveonsje n)

Usage notes
[edit]

Prior to the law of 1820 that introduced the metric system in what then united both the Netherlands and Belgium a variety of measures ranging around ca 30 grams were known by this name. The law of 1820 attributed the name to the hectogram of 100 grams. In 1937 the IJkwet of the Netherlands officially abolished the term, but it is still commonly used.
