زمینه فرهنگی
The Dutch are very direct. If you say something factually incorrect, they will likely 'opzoeken' the truth on their phone immediately to correct you. This isn't seen as rude, but as being helpful. In Flanders, 'opzoeken' is used similarly, but you might also hear 'opzoeken' used more frequently for visiting people than in the Northern Netherlands, where 'op bezoek gaan' is also very common. Schools in the Netherlands emphasize 'Informatievaardigheden' (information skills). Students are taught from age 8 how to 'iets opzoeken' effectively using reliable sources. The Netherlands has one of the highest smartphone penetrations in the world. 'Iets opzoeken' is now synonymous with 'Googelen'.
The 'Even' Trick
Dutch people almost always add 'even' (or 'effe') to this phrase: 'Ik zoek het even op.' It makes you sound much more natural and less robotic.
Don't lose your keys!
Remember: if you lost your keys, don't say 'opzoeken'. Your Dutch friends will think you are looking for a definition of keys, not the keys themselves.
