意味
Ending an event.
文化的背景
Dutch people are very punctual. When a meeting or party is 'voorbij', people usually leave immediately. Lingering is less common than in Southern Europe. In Flanders, you might hear 'Het is gedaan' more often than in the Netherlands, though 'voorbij' is perfectly understood. The phrase is a staple in 'Smartlappen' (sentimental Dutch folk songs). It often refers to lost love or the 'good old days'. The Dutch talk about the weather constantly. 'De regen is voorbij' is a phrase of great joy and relief.
The 'Event' Rule
If you can put it on a calendar, use 'voorbij' when it ends.
Relationship Drama
Saying 'Het is voorbij' to a partner is a total breakup. Don't say it if you just mean the argument is over!
