A2 Expression خنثی

wat is je doel?

what is your goal?

معنی

Asking about aims.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The Dutch are very direct. Asking 'Wat is je doel?' in a meeting is not seen as aggressive but as a way to ensure everyone's time is being used efficiently. Flemish speakers might use 'Wat is de bedoeling?' slightly more often than 'Wat is je doel?' in social contexts, as it sounds a bit softer. In Surinamese Dutch, the tone might be more rhythmic, and 'doel' is often used in the context of community and family progress. The concept of 'SMART doelen' (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) is ubiquitous in Dutch offices.

💡

Use 'Jouw' for Emphasis

If you want to emphasize that you are asking about *their* specific goal compared to others, use 'Wat is JOUW doel?'

⚠️

Don't use with 'Wie'

Never say 'Wie is je doel?' unless you are an assassin looking for a person. For objectives, always use 'Wat'.

Yes, 'het doel' is the physical goal post. However, a 'goal' (the point scored) is 'het doelpunt'.

In Dutch culture, no. It is seen as clear and helpful. In other cultures, you might want to soften it with 'Mag ik vragen...'.

'Doel' is general and common. 'Doelstelling' is more formal and often used in reports or official plans.

You say 'Mijn doel is...' followed by an infinitive with 'om te' or a noun. E.g., 'Mijn doel is om te winnen.'
