Leisure activity.
文化的背景
The 'Boekenweek' is a major cultural event where buying a book can get you a free train ride. This reflects the high value placed on literacy. Flemish people also use 'een boek lezen', but they might use 'ne' instead of 'een' in very informal spoken dialects (e.g., 'ne boek lezen'). The 'Leesplankje van Hoogeveen' (Aap, Noot, Mies) is a famous historical tool used to teach Dutch children how to read. Despite the rise of social media, 'Bookstagram' and 'BookTok' are very active in the Netherlands, often using the hashtag #hebban.
