There's a really funny passage in one of the Bill Bryson books about listening to the Dutch speak. He said it sounds for all the world like they are speaking English, but nonsensical words. Did you ever have that experience?
The double O's in 'dood' are actually pronounced pretty much as one isolated O in English. (I never had the harrowing existential experience with the word 'dude' by the way.)
