意味
Commenting on price.
文化的背景
The Dutch are famous for their 'kortingskaarten' (discount cards) and 'bonusaanbiedingen' (bonus offers). Saying 'Het is nogal duur' is often a prelude to asking if there is a sale or a discount available. In Flanders, people might use 'vrij duur' or 'nogal prijzig' more often. The tone is slightly more formal than in the Netherlands, but the sentiment remains the same. In business, being 'zuinig' (frugal) is seen as a sign of good management. A CEO saying 'Het is nogal duur' isn't necessarily being cheap; they are showing they are responsible with the company's money. Expats often find the Netherlands expensive initially. Using 'Het is nogal duur' is a common way for newcomers to bond over the high cost of housing and dining out in cities like Amsterdam.
The 'Vinden' Trick
Always use 'Ik vind het nogal duur' to sound more like a native speaker. It makes your opinion sound less like an attack on the seller.
Don't over-use 'Te'
Beginners often say 'te duur' (too expensive) for everything. Use 'nogal duur' to show you have a more nuanced vocabulary.

The Tikkie Context
If a friend sends you a Tikkie for something small, you can jokingly say 'Dat was nogal duur!' but be careful—Dutch people take their Tikkies seriously!
