意味
Providing a response to an inquiry.
文化的背景
Dutch directness means that 'beantwoorden' often leads to a very blunt 'nee' or 'ja' without much sugar-coating. Flemish speakers might use 'antwoorden' more often than 'beantwoorden' in casual speech, and the answers are generally more polite and indirect. In Surinamese Dutch, the register can be more formal and respectful, especially when answering elders. In offices, 'beantwoorden' is often replaced by 'oppakken' (to pick up/handle) or 'terugkoppelen' (to give feedback).
The 'dt' rule
Always check if the subject is 'jij' or 'hij'. If so, add a 't' to 'beantwoord', making it 'beantwoordt'.
No 'op' with 'be-'
Never say 'beantwoorden op'. It's a very common mistake for English speakers!
