Dutch is the language of Netherlands, whereas the Deutsch is the language of Germany.
They are not the same. The scripts are similar but that does not make them the same.
Plus the phonetics and the words are totally different.
Dutch is a Low German language, German is a High German language. The High and Low is about geography btw.
The main difference, apart from a lot of different words, is the so called High German consonant shift.
