معنی
To tell everyone a piece of news very loudly.
زمینه فرهنگی
Dutch people are generally direct, but this idiom is used to show excitement rather than just being blunt. The phrase is used identically in Flanders, though the tone might be slightly more reserved. The phrase has roots in the Bible, making it a culturally recognized idiom across many Christian-influenced cultures. In the age of social media, 'van de daken schreeuwen' is often used to describe posting something on Facebook or Instagram.
Focus on the 'van'
Always remember to use 'van' (from). It sounds very unnatural to native speakers if you use 'op' (on).
Use it for excitement
This phrase is best used when you are genuinely excited. It adds a layer of emotion to your sentence.
