Zonder problemen.

Without problems.

意味

🌍

文化的背景

The Dutch value 'efficiëntie' (efficiency). Saying something went 'zonder problemen' is a way of validating that the system or plan worked as intended. Flemish speakers use the phrase similarly, but might also use 'zonder haperen' (without stuttering/hiccups) for a more descriptive touch. In Surinamese Dutch, 'zonder problemen' is often used to emphasize peace and lack of conflict in social settings. In Afrikaans, the equivalent is 'sonder probleme'. Because of the shared history, the usage is almost identical to Dutch.
