意思
Patience is needed, do not rush.
文化背景
Reflects the 'Poldermodel' mentality—consensus and steady progress are valued over radical, rushed changes. Flemish speakers use this phrase just as much, but it often carries a slightly more 'relaxed' (Bourgondisch) connotation compared to the stricter Dutch 'nuchterheid'. In Surinamese Dutch, the concept of 'Sranan Tijd' (Suriname Time) is a cultural trope. While 'alles op zijn tijd' is used, it might be interpreted with a more flexible view of punctuality. Despite being very punctual, Dutch businesses value thoroughness. Rushing a contract is seen as suspicious; 'alles op zijn tijd' is a sign of professional due diligence.
Sound like a native
Always use 'z'n' instead of 'zijn' in casual conversation. It makes the phrase sound much more natural and less like you're reading from a book.
Don't use for punctuality
If you are late for a meeting, do not say 'alles op zijn tijd' as an excuse. It will be seen as arrogant. Use 'sorry dat ik te laat ben' instead.
