意思
To meet someone or something for the first time.
文化背景
The 'kennismakingsgesprek' is a sacred ritual in Dutch business. It is often a 30-minute informal chat to see if there is a 'click' before any technical interview happens. Flemish people might use 'kennis maken' slightly more formally than the Dutch. In informal settings, they might prefer 'leren kennen'. In many Dutch villages, 'buurtmaken' (making neighborhood) is a specific form of 'kennismaken' where you invite neighbors for a drink after moving in. In Dutch universities, the first week is called 'Introductieweek', but the individual sessions are often called 'Kennismaking met de faculteit'.
The Handshake Rule
In the Netherlands, 'kennismaken' is almost always accompanied by a firm handshake and looking the person in the eye.
Don't forget 'MET'
English speakers often say 'Ik maak kennis hem', but you MUST include 'met'.
