معنی
A variety of different items.
زمینه فرهنگی
The Dutch love 'vrijmarkten' (free markets), especially on King's Day. This phrase is the unofficial slogan of these markets, where people sell a chaotic mix of second-hand goods. In Flanders, the phrase is just as common but might be delivered with a softer 'g' and sometimes followed by 'en nog veel meer' for extra emphasis. Using this phrase during a 'koffieautomaat' (coffee machine) chat is a great way to build rapport without being too formal or too personal. Certain Dutch stores are famous for having 'van alles en nog wat.' It's part of the 'snuffelcultuur' (browsing culture) where you go in for one thing and leave with five miscellaneous items.

Saying 'alles en nog wat' sounds like a direct translation from English and is a common giveaway that you are a learner.
