A1 Expression ニュートラル

Ik hou van de natuur.

I love nature.

意味

Stating a preference for the outdoors.

🌍

文化的背景

Dutch people love 'uitwaaien' (walking in the wind), especially on the coast. Loving nature is often synonymous with loving the beach and dunes. In Flanders, nature is often associated with the 'Ardennen' (Ardennes mountains). The phrase is used similarly but with a slightly different accent. In Dutch-speaking Suriname, 'natuur' often refers to the vast tropical rainforest (the 'binnenland'). Loving nature here implies a connection to the jungle. Dutch people living abroad often use this phrase to express what they miss about the Dutch polder landscapes or, conversely, what they love about their new, wilder surroundings.

💡

⚠️

Don't use 'Liefde' as a verb

English speakers often try to say 'Ik liefde...', but 'liefde' is only a noun.
