There's actually an excellent Dutch piece of software for this (Windows only though, but works fine in Wine on other platforms): Overhoor [1].

I used it under Windows 3.11 as a child, and kept using it for French and German into my late teens and Windows ME. It is simple, just as this tool. To this day, it's a piece of freeware that gives me good memories of a forgotten era.

Since the author describes learning Dutch, I though I might mention its existence.

I came here to say the same thing! I used an ancient (DOS) version of it to get me through high school French, German, Latin and so on. Fond memories.
