Significado
Send greetings to a third party.
Contexto cultural
It is common to send greetings to someone's partner or children even if you don't know them well. Flemish speakers often use 'groetjes' more frequently in informal settings. In business, 'Doe de groeten' is too informal. Use 'Doe mijn groeten aan...' or 'Ik verzoek u de groeten over te brengen'. Among close friends, you might skip the verb and just say 'Groetjes aan [naam]!'.
Use 'aan'
Always remember to use 'aan' to connect the greeting to the person.
Be careful with 'De groeten!'
Don't use it as a standalone goodbye unless you want to sound rude.
