Examples
Ask Claude, or any MCP client, things like these. The answers are in Dutch, like the content.
- "What does the Dutch word tachtien mean, how do you pronounce it, and where
does it come from?" uses
define: ontelbaar veel, IPAtɑxtin, a slip of the tongue from 2014, with sources. - "Rewrite this message with tachtien: 'Gisteren heel veel kopstootjes
gedronken met ongeveer honderd man, en vandaag 3 aspirines.'" uses
tachtienify: "Gisteren tachtien kopstootjes gedronken met tachtien man, en vandaag 3 aspirines." The exact 3 stays, because it was counted. - "I have more than 50 unread emails. Does that count as tachtien? And what
about exactly 80?" uses
is_tachtien: more than 50 is tachtien, because nobody counted; 80 is not, that is tachtig. - "Where has tachtien been mentioned in the press?" uses
mentionswithsource: "press": four articles with links.
Tools
| Tool | Input | Returns | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
define | none | syllables, part of speech, IPA, definition, origin | ||
examples | random?: boolean | example dialogues, or one at random | ||
mentions | `source?: "twitter" \ | "press" \ | "cityguys"` | external mentions with title, source and URL |
tachtienify | text: string | text with vague large amounts and estimates of 50 or more replaced by tachtien, the count, and each replaced phrase with its index | ||
is_tachtien | `amount: number \ | string` | { isTachtien, reason } |
Estimates ("ongeveer honderd", "zo'n 60", "~200", "100+") and lower bounds ("meer dan 50", "ruim honderd") are tachtien from 50 up, because nobody counted them. Exact numbers, smaller estimates and years ("rond 2014") are not.
Prompts
| Prompt | Arguments | What it does | |
|---|---|---|---|
uitleg | `taal?: "Nederlands" \ | "English"` | explains the word, with the entry embedded |
herschrijf | tekst: string | runs tachtienify on the server, then asks the model to fix the grammar | |
zin | onderwerp?: string | asks for a new example sentence in the style of the site |
taal and onderwerp support completion/complete.
Resource tachtien://entry is the whole entry as Markdown. Content is Dutch,
as on the site; tool descriptions are English.
curl -s https://mcp.tachtien.nl/mcp \
-H 'content-type: application/json' -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"tachtienify","arguments":{"text":"heel veel kopstootjes"}}}'
Develop
npm install
npm run dev # wrangler dev at http://localhost:8787 (MCP at /mcp)
npm test # vitest in workerd
npm run check:drift # compare src/entry.js with the live tachtien.nl
npm run deploy # wrangler deploy to mcp.tachtien.nl
The first deploy creates the mcp.tachtien.nl DNS record and certificate,
provided the tachtien.nl zone is in the same Cloudflare account.
