معنی
It is very bad.
زمینه فرهنگی
Complaining (klagen) is a national hobby. Using dramatic phrases like this is a way to bond over shared frustrations. Flemish speakers also use this phrase, but they might find the Dutch usage a bit more 'direct' or 'loud'. Directness is valued, but this phrase is usually too informal for a meeting with a boss. Use 'ondermaats' instead. On Dutch Twitter, you'll see this phrase used with hashtags like #fail or #dtv (durf te vragen) when things go wrong.
Use for emphasis
Add 'echt' or 'werkelijk' to sound more like a native speaker when complaining.
Not for funerals
Never use this for actual death or tragedy; it sounds like you are mocking the situation.

Yes, but it's very mean. 'Zijn gedrag is om te huilen' means his behavior is pathetic.
Usually, but you can say 'De kwaliteit was om te huilen' or 'Een resultaat om te huilen'.
No, 'jammer' means 'unfortunate'. 'Om te huilen' is much stronger and implies poor quality or a disaster.
