'Going Dutch:' American saying (I think) meaning every member of a party, when going out for drinks or dinner even, will pay for him or herself. A pain for the poor waiters who are trying to come up with enough change. However nowadays that would be less of a problem, what with chipcards and pay via smartphone. 'Dutch Party:' also American.

I love the Netherlands and most of the people. I was born and grew up in NYC a long time ago and for me going to live in the Netherlands 2012 was like going home. The candid no nonsense way of speaking and being plus their sense of social responsibility is unique and the opposite of USA. I've lived in 10 countries and now speak 5 languages including Dutch. A great language and country. I never felt as free and comfortable as in the Netherlands. Their level of tolerance, acceptance and understanding is more than anywhere I've lived and quite the opposite of the USA, which like the British is never saying what they mean and being quite hypocritical. The Dutch do not beat around the bush. Obviously there are exceptions in every country.

Sleeping, eating ( even a lot of people have a fixed dinner on days of the week) , visiting friend and family, housekerping, just name it. Going to cinema the first satyrday of the month for example, or always going to a fixed day of the month doing the big shoppings. If you call somebody to ask if you can come for a visit then don't be surprised to hear something like " Sorry, I can't because I always do the shoppings at the second tuesday of the month in the afternoon.

Hoffelijkheid en beleefdheid is iets waar de Engelsen goed in zijn (Nederlanders niet). En zij brengen slecht nieuws op een manier zodat je de persoon die het over zich heen krijgt de pijn wat verzacht. En soms wordt de keiharde waarheid niet verteld om iemands gevoelens te sparen. Ik ben ook Nederlandse en ik ben absoluut tegen liegen en om de waarheid heen draaien maar Nederlanders gooien dat op een onhandige manier bij iemand voor de voeten. Engelsen ergeren zich eraan en dat kan ik wel een beetje begrijpen: je kunt negatief nieuws ook op een vriendelijker manier brengen. En het is toch ook mooi dat er mensen zijn die geven om je gevoelens en daarom sommige, relatief onschuldige maar wel vervelende zaken besluiten niet te bespreken uit een soort respect voor jou. Rotnieuws is nooit leuk om te brengen. Natuurlijk moet je bij belangrijke en ernstige dingen nooit zwijgen! Nederlanders denderen over de Engelse manier heen zonder erbij stil te staan dat hoffelijkheid ook heel belangrijk is, we zeggen immrrs wel eens: het is niet wat je zegt maar hoe je het zegt. Dat wordt bedoeld met indirecte culturen. Maar dat klopt ook niet helemaal: alle westerse werelddelen zijn vaak directer dan de rest

i'm half Dutch half Welsh and grew up in Holland, but travelled and lived in other countries a lot also. Main part I lived in Holland, in all different cities and towns. Up to this day, almost always when i meet a very open, low barrier, easy to make friends with person, they are not Dutch. There are always from another country, including the English. I once had a very good Australian friend who tried living in A'dam for a year and she became almost depressed soon, and i totally understood her. She was used to very warm, sociable mentalities, and making friends very quickly everywhere. The outdoorsy lifestyle seems to resonate with the mentality. The Dutch to me are very withdrawn and reserved, it takes years before they ' come out of their boxes' ...I don't want to attack anyone, but i just think it's very striking!

Dude you know how rude it is to just ask for more cookies. I mean like, people always say Dutch people are greedy. That's not true we just have common desency for our country so you should respect them.

its so funny to see what everyone else thinks of our culture :p I knew we are direct, but never knew it was that noticeable. I love to see how actually nobody really hates the dutch culture, good to know it is loved by many :) And ofcourse, alot of love back from The Netherlands. or like we would say: het ga je goed

My summary: PROS: - quite direct (they say what they expect of you) - very welcoming, showing genuine interest in other cultures - they're great in speaking / knowing English - if you ask for help, they will gladly help you CONS: - sometimes cold, robot like (people in administration) - not providing enough of food - just finger food while you're guest on a birthday party (probably just cultural difference I'm not accustomed to) - some are cycling like maniacs cutting my way or cycling in my lane (Dutch students mostly, lol)

Moon Gloss Yeah, that’s not viewed aa cycling like maniacs. As long as you don’t fall they’re cycling fine.

In a lot of countries people just talk because of talking, in Netherlands this is different. Especially men are very problem solving oriented, I think this is the directness. So a man will actually adres the problem, while the foreigner only wanted some small talk, and is suddenly confronted with a solution or a remark that they didnt knew that was coming.

In my social circles we always keep talking English for as long as we have a foreigner in our midst. Although some people can switch back to Dutch when you don't seem to be listening anymore, or they have a hard time translating to English. But most people speak English pretty well, so those people aren't that common.

@TheWeeaboo You hit the nail on the head, Weeaboo. Many Dutch people do overestimate their command of English to a cringe-worthy degree. Their vanity may indeed serve a certain lazyness. But vanity is not the only cause -- their poor English is often also due to their poor command of their own Dutch language. Veel Nederlanders geven geen zier om hun taal. Hun Engels is vaak een gebrekkige weergave van hun gebrekkig Nederlands.

yes, im American and i noticed that too. Dutch is my second language so I found myself switching a lot too, since some Dutchies/Belgians actually like practicing their American accent.

For people who feel annoyed about being with Dutch people around that speak shortly English but start speaking Dutch again for a while, I am very sorry to hear that. I think it depends on people, it also happened to me when I was with Chinese people and my friend when he was with Italian people. I think it depends on how people feel Comfortable and sometime they don’t realise how bad it can feel to people that cannot join the topic because of a different language. I always speak English even with my Dutch friends if there is a person that speak English, even when I don’t know them well I try to make topics and try to make them feel Comfortable.

This is so funny, and spot on. I lived there almost 20 years. Ik hou van Nederland❤️

I've never been to the Netherlands, but the more I see and hear, the more I like it. There are sometimes little (or big) differences in national character, courtesy, outlook, behavior, things like that. They go with what makes a language or culture its own unique thing. The two comments about learning a language to really know the people and the culture, the reasons why, I really liked that. The comment on the ad, "Fit in to stand out," illustrates how Americans want to be unique and individualistic, where Dutch people (and many others) want teamwork, fitting in. (Americans also want to fit in, but in another way.) I'm interested to learn Dutch.

i would say that the only correct thing in this video that really describes us dutch people is the directness, we say what we think and are straight to the point, but thats actually not all dutch people i would say that only goes for north holland south holland and utrecht the rest of the provinces kinda have their own way of living and diff values and upbringings, its actually quite logical:P that the people from the big cities are more direct and to the point cause they dont like to waste time, while the people from the east are more ... how u say it.. they live on a slower pace? idunno but there is deff a big diff between them and us, while the other points in this video dont really describe ''the dutch'' its more personalties of diff people and upbringings, as for us speaking english.. in my experience in most of all the big cities literly everyone speaks english and very fluently, ofcourse there are some dutch people that still speak broken kinda english, but all in all most of us speak english pretty decent i would say

Yes, Tom, absolutely. And I'm from UK also and my partner is Dutch and its been very liberating and really feeling healthier for not being as reserved.

The levels of English of Dutch people in general is very high. As a native English speaker trying to get over that and converse in Dutch is really hard especially in Amsterdam, although not so bad in the provinces. My advice if you want to learn the language would be to live in another town/city that isn't Amsterdam.

Your suggestions please! We will record a new series of interviews... we'll ask expats in the Netherlands about their experiences with the Dutch. Which topics should we cover?

Racism and why there is still a colonial hangover amongst the Dutch. Folks of different color and ethnicities would be shocked about how "white" Dutch feel about them and what say behind their backs. I know since they have told me in clear words, due to their bluntness. They don't even bother to find out if what they say is offensive to anyone around them who is hearing it. They are rude, narcissitic, unempathic and unable to walk in the shoes of others, self-centered, selfish, and greedy. When I have tried to point out the error of their ways, especially regarding racism, they attack me. As people have mentioned here, they hate to be corrected. However, they need to learn that their racism is not right.

I view NL as reasonably polite but kind of cold. Charm isnt really considered a plus there. I speak Dutch (but Im American) and I wish the Dutchies had been more open and fun, and not just when they drink. I think its the weather and the "everything must be rational" mentality.

Try to interview Dutch people who live abroad and how they experience this compared to how things work in The Netherlands.

I think that Dutch people are either really agreeable or they are/think of themselves as very assertive and dont like people waisting their time/being out of the ordinairy. It's actually pretty polarised that way. I do think we speak our minds. But I've met English people that speak their minds as well. So whether any stereotype holds up in the end ... I doubt it actually xD. Still I do think we are the nicer version of a German though. That is: we run things efficiently and try to stay ahead of the pack but we do try to be accommodating when we can.

finsclapping interesting description even though I won't subscribe to this. I am southern german and used to live for many years in northern Germany. From my experience there is a huge divide in history, culture and social behaviour. Northern seemed germanic, distant and not very socially inclined. In the south we are more tribal and clingy, alemanic bavarian celtic. It is hard to keep your distance here. Protestant vs catholic. You see this even when you take a look on the forms of rural settlements. So you will find more likely simply more hospitable people down south while of course they also exist up north and east and west. Same goes for nederlands people. Not all of them are dutch and compare a South England bred person to a Yorkie. These stereotyes won't do any justice. Society works on a very small level.

Good on you :) Being strongminded and capable is to be celebrated no matter what. I don't think I paint assertiveness as negative in what I said. But maybe you did rightfully pick up on a hesitation to be overly celebratory, and it is because there is a flip side to having a society that is fairly deterministic. One that almost blindly follows the established trajectory or even pathologies(patterns of behavior) of a community. In the Netherlands and in business we have lots of that. Which is why you have to be articulate in your approach, especially when your ideas differ from those of the group. But we're not unique that way. And I perhaps wrongfully associate assertiveness with the tendency of some to simply follow with blind devotion, enthusiastically. But that's wrong. Being assertive is great, and it is what we do with it that is what is important and probably where my personal irritations/fascinations surface.

I like the ‘nicer version of a german’ 😂😂

Nice video, although I would have added far more more extreme examples. I'm Irish and speak fluent, Dutch with a noticeable, generic Flemish accent because I had spent time in Flanders. It had gotten me into all kinds of confusing situations in NL as they did not know what to make of me! My experience has been working as a substitute teacher in local secondary schools (not international schools), as I live close to the Dutch/German border. The Dutch have their merits, no doubt, but, there are many things I struggle with and just do not like about the way they do things! The more you understand their cultural nuances from within, the easier it is to deal with, however.

I have had a bad experience with how direct Dutch people can be, to the extent that sometimes to me they can be totally mean. I have been friends with a Dutch man for almost a year now and one time I decided to follow his friend on Instagram and he followed me back. I thought things were okay, nothing was wrong until when my friend literally said on my face that I was just befriending him to flirt with his friend. First of all his friend and I haven't even talked, we just basically said hi. When I said ofc not you made me sad/cry and he replied that he made people cry every time. (??) But most of times I love them though, they are genuine and kind people, except that moment which is just ERGH I don't get it like it's normal thing to do here. I unfollowed his friend.

for the girls at 3:21 : the netherlands is a country that adjusts very quick to other cultures and languages, thats because of the trade in the middle ages. like in cities, you will not be adressed in dutch, but in english,german or sometimes even french. in germany or spain for example, maybe 1 or 2 will adress you in english

As a Dutchie, I can say this is really accurate

I was so shocked by my boyfriend who's Dutch at the beginning of our relationship because of his directness. I'm from China and Chinese people are more likely to not to say things too directly, for me, I also sometimes like to say things in a more hidden way, then he can't be able to catch my meaning, so he got annoyed by that. Meanwhile, I got upset because of his directness as well...but gradually I'm becoming more direct than I used to be because I realized that it really saves a lot of time.

It’s funny how in almost every video I’ve seen about “the Dutch”, everyone says we’re really direct and always speak our minds. I can partly agree to that, actually. But I do find the directness more in the big cities and in the Northern parts of the Netherlands. In the South we are much more laid back I guess.. But that’s my opinion lol. I’m Dutch myself and I’d rather have people say what they really think than lying to my or someone else’s face

Better to be direct, than waste your time with not saying what you want. Life is precious. Spend your time well. It might end sooner than you expect.

I live in the Netherlands. Our country is very small but our culture really depends on what part of the netherlands we're talking about. I personally live in the mideast, where we really don't put anything in our agenda, we just memorize our days mostly. Plus, I live in a city with a lot of expats and we talk english very well. Almost every city in the mideast has a secondary school with the so-called program TTO, which is basically bilangual education. A lot of people apply for TTO. So yeah, when in a conversation about the Dutch, you should really also meantion the area. However, with most of the other aspects, I fully agree :). Nice vid btw

I'm a German and don't have a clue how I ended up here

Im currently living in dutch and this is my 2nd time here.I think its not so easy to build a real friendship with the dutch people.Bui think when u finally get a one friend then it will be for a lifetime friend. In the dutch society u have to bell them over in phone than docking in their door even if they just live upstair in ur house. Well every ducth knows andrea hazes even me i like "zij geloof in mij" . They really like to speak english even if u start with hoi ans they answer u back hello. They love their doggies,and they always prepare a small plastic in case their doggie pop in front of the neigbor house. During birthday dont expect like u are in other countries where u blow candles in the cake and many food in front of u,well in the dutch always expect to have apple tart and koffie with klein blocks of white sugar. In the end dutch people are nice if they dont like u they they will say nothing at all than saying bad about u.Sometimes descrimanation is part of the dutch well i think every country does. Weather here is mad sometimes rainy,windy and sunny but in the end they love their sun and everybody likes to spelbuiten or etenbuiten,sometimes like everybody does people here complain about their weather.

ik denk dat was een goede informatie... ik ga nog nooits naar nederlands but actually ik kan iets van deze video leren

Living as a dutch for a long time abroad, I learned that when people criticize their guest land, it tells more about themselves actually as about their guest land. People tend to see their own culture als "absolute" and measure all other cultures on that. Once when you understand that it is easier to adapt and accept instead of judging. It can also be very fun to look at your own culture with a different perspective.
