Dat klinkt als een goed plan.

That sounds like a good plan.

Agreeing with a suggestion.

🌍

문화적 배경

The phrase is a cornerstone of the 'Poldermodel,' where consensus is king. Using it shows you are a team player who values collective decision-making. While understood, Flemish speakers might use 'Dat lijkt me een goed plan' or 'Dat is een goed idee' slightly more often. The tone in Flanders can be slightly less direct than in the Randstad. Even in flat hierarchies, this phrase is used to validate subordinates' ideas, fostering an environment where everyone feels heard. In the digital age, 'Klinkt goed!' (often with a thumbs-up emoji) is the standard way to end a planning conversation on WhatsApp.

💡

⚠️

Don't use 'hoort'

Yes, it is perfectly acceptable in professional emails, though 'Ik ga akkoord met uw voorstel' is slightly more formal.

Usually no, unless your workplace is extremely hierarchical. Most Dutch offices are casual enough for 'Klinkt goed'.

Because 'plan' is a countable noun, it requires the indefinite article 'een'.

'Klinkt' is used for things you hear or read; 'lijkt' is for things that seem a certain way conceptually.
